+long_desc="
+ cvs2svn is a tool for migrating a CVS repository to Subversion, git, or
+ Bazaar. The main design goals are robustness and 100% data preservation.
+ cvs2svn can convert just about any CVS repository we've ever seen, including
+ gcc, Mozilla, FreeBSD, KDE, GNOME...
+
+ cvs2svn infers what happened in the history of your CVS repository and
+ replicates that history as accurately as possible in the target SCM. All
+ revisions, branches, tags, log messages, author names, and commit dates are
+ converted. cvs2svn deduces what CVS modifications were made at the same time,
+ and outputs these modifications grouped together as changesets in the target
+ SCM. cvs2svn also deals with many CVS quirks and is highly configurable."
