title: Migrating Remote CVS to local Git on OSX
body: <p>I am trying to migrate a simple remote cvs repository to GIT on Eclipse Mars on an OSX machine.
  I have installed a command line cvs and logged in to the remote cvs server.
  I then tried running the following:-
  <strong>$ git cvsimport -v -a -i -k -d :pserver:lyndon@xxxx.com:/home/mmj/cvs/repos -C cvstest cvstest</strong></p>
  
  <p>But it fails with this output:
  <strong>Initialized empty Git repository in /Users/xxxx/git/cvstest/.git/
  Running cvsps...
  bad usage: invalid argument --norc</strong></p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?</p>
  
  <p>Any help would be much appreciated...</p>
