subversion and cvs

Differences between subversion and cvs.

files

svn has only a single repository file but cvs is based on RCS file arch.

branch and tags

In cvs, we use cvs tag and cvs branch to branch and tag source code

import

In the base dir of the target dir
cvs import -m"import proj1" proj1 vendor_tag release_tag

But in svn, you can do it like this
svn import . file:///c:/svnroot/your_project -m "import proj1"
or
above the target project base dir
svn import proj1 file:///c:/svnroot/your_project -m "import proj1"
