IIRC we talked about a way, which doesn't need fiddling with
partial read-only and still reduces commit-downtime to only a few hours:
* create initial svn
from a copy of current CVS (takes long, although we have now a fat
machine)
* leave CVS open that time, but disallow any creation of tags
and branches (!).
* leave svn closed, remember highest rev R.
Then (assuming cvs2svn is appropriately hacked):
* close cvs
* use cvs2svn on it to fill svn ignoring all revision up to R (takes let's
say two hours)
* open svn
* done.
Ciao,
Michael.
