I wonder what the sequence is for importing cvs files into fossil. I tried
to get it from cvs2fossil but got lost.

first you need to get a commit identifier?
assume the following cvs-repository 'example'
first.c with rev 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4
second.c with rev 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 and only one user user1

commit 1     first.c rev 1.1

commit 2     first.c rev 1.2 second.c rev 1.1

commit 3     first.c rev 1.3 second.c rev 1.2

commit 4      second.c rev 1.3

commit 5     first.c rev 1.4 second.c 1.4

cvs2fossil does
            create repository 'example' with user1?
    then
            first.c rev 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4
    and then
            second.c rev 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4

which test-? are used to accomplish this?
