Has anyone got any useful scripts for mirroring changes made to a CVS repository into a BK one? For example, I can do an import from CVS to BK but changes will continue to happen to the CVS repository for a while. I would like to capture the revision history of those changes and apply them to the BK repository automatically. If not, it won't take long to implement but I don't want to reinvent the wheel!

<plug> I've been working on VCP, which is a Perl framework for doing that sort of thing. We have VCP::Source::cvs, but not VCP::Dest::bk. Right now it's Unix/cygwin-only due to reliance on select() to manage subprocesses.

It's in beta, and <disclaimer>partially funded by Perforce</disclaimer>, but it's available off of CPAN (the Perl module library). You can get it by:

$ perl -MCPAN -e shell cpan> install VCP

Contributions gladly welcomed!
