Need Help Keeping timestamps when moving from SCCS to CVS

[Todd Denniston]

Have you seen the sccs2rcs script in the contrib directory?

one of it's "Things to note"
"+ Date, time, author, comments, branches, are all preserved."

You will need SCCS and rcs on the same machine to run the script.

http://cvs.savannah.nongnu.org/viewvc/*checkout*/ccvs/contrib/sccs2rcs.in?revision=1.9&root=cvs

Once you have RCS files they can then be organized into a CVS directory tree.

Hope this helps.

Is it possible to move a SCCS repository to CVS and maintain the
timestamps?   I was going to write a perl script to move the files
into CVS however, I could not find an option that would allow me to
specify the timestamp on the version of a particular file.

      Best Regards
