 A.14.1 import options
 ---------------------
 
 This standard option is supported by `import' ( Common options,
 for a complete description):
 
 `-m MESSAGE'
      Use MESSAGE as log information, instead of invoking an editor.
 
    There are the following additional special options.
 
 `-b BRANCH'
      See  Multiple vendor branches.
 
 `-k SUBST'
      Indicate the keyword expansion mode desired.  This setting will
      apply to all files created during the import, but not to any files
      that previously existed in the repository.  See  Substitution
      modes, for a list of valid `-k' settings.
 
 `-I NAME'
      Specify file names that should be ignored during import.  You can
      use this option repeatedly.  To avoid ignoring any files at all
      (even those ignored by default), specify `-I !'.
 
      NAME can be a file name pattern of the same type that you can
      specify in the `.cvsignore' file.   cvsignore.
 
 `-W SPEC'
      Specify file names that should be filtered during import.  You can
      use this option repeatedly.
 
      SPEC can be a file name pattern of the same type that you can
      specify in the `.cvswrappers' file.  Wrappers.
 
 `-X'
      Modify the algorithm used by CVS when importing new files so that
      new files do not immediately appear on the main trunk.
 
      Specifically, this flag causes CVS to mark new files as if they
      were deleted on the main trunk, by taking the following steps for
      each file in addition to those normally taken on import: creating
      a new revision on the main trunk indicating that the new file is
      `dead', resetting the new file's default branch, and placing the
      file in the Attic ( Attic) directory.
 
      Use of this option can be forced on a repository-wide basis by
      setting the `ImportNewFilesToVendorBranchOnly' option in
      CVSROOT/config ( config).
