cvs checkin issues
 
I have created a cvs directory and want to check in some files; I'm getting error:

Code:
cvs [import aborted]: tag '-m' must start with a letter
Here is what I have done (everything as root):

- mkdir /cvsroot
- cd /cvsroot
- cvs -d /cvsroot
- export CVSROOT=/cvsroot && echo $CVSROOT
- cd /path/to/project (here I have lots of files eg. file1.txt)
- cvs import -d /cvsroot/ mydocs -m"initial checkin"

solved:

- cvs import -d /cvsroot/ mydocs -m"initial checkin" should be
- cvs -d /cvsroot/ import -m "initial import" docs me initial
