[Gnu-arch-users] cscvs totla.TlaError: "tla undo" failed with exit status 512

[micah milano]

I was attempting to bring in an archive with:

cscvs totla -S MAIN.1:2174 /home/manderson/cvs/sympa/tla

and it had been chugging along nicely, only a few hundred revisions
left, when it threw this exception:

Warning: not overwriting existing log file
N changeset 2067
R wwsympa/tt2/translate.tt2 [1.4]
attempt to remove non-existent id for wwsympa/tt2/translate.tt2
Performing undo due to exception: "tla delete
'wwsympa/tt2/translate.tt2'" failed with exit status 512
undo: illegal revision name: address@hidden/sympa--CVS--0--

(NB: I dont know why there are two dashes at the end of that revision name!!)

Traceback (most recent call last):

    if ret: raise TlaError('"tla %s" failed with exit status %s' %
(command, ret))
totla.TlaError: "tla undo" failed with exit status 512

How do I fix this and continue where it left off?

Thanks, I will get this to work dang it.
