help converting module to repo, OR move modules around

[DC]

Is there a way to convert a module to a repo, or redo the module layout? Either 
way, it is important that I do NOT loose the version
history.  Actually I want to go with option 2. The reason I posted the first 
one, is because I have 3 "subprojects" that I definately want
to make a seperate repo for.


this is what I have (in my own layout)

REPO (/opt/cvsroot)
    MODULE (productname)

in the file system, the module looks like this
    /opt/cvs/root/productname
    /opt/cvs/root/productname/SubProject1
    /opt/cvs/root/productname/SubProject2
    /opt/cvs/root/productname/Database_Patches
    /opt/cvs/root/productname/SubProject3
    ...

I want to change it to one of the following:

--OPTION 1 --
    REPO (/opt/cvsroot/SubProject1)
    REPO (/opt/cvsroot/SubProject2)
    REPO (/opt/cvsroot/SubProject3)
    REPO(/opt/cvsroot/Database_Patches)
    REPO (/opt/cvsroot/SubProject4)
    ...



or, just move modules around like so. (mock CVSROOT/modules)

-- OPTION 2 --
# REPO (/opt/cvsroot)
entire_project -a subproject1 subproject2 subproject3 subproject4 ...
subproject1 -a SubProject1      # /opt/cvsroot/SubProject1
subproject2 -a SubProject2      # /opt/cvsroot/SubProject2
subproject3 -a SubProject3      # /opt/cvsroot/SubProject3
subproject4 -a SubProject4      # /opt/cvsroot/SubProject4
... 

# REPO (/some/other/path/cvsroot)
patches -a patches           # /some/other/path/cvsroot/Database_Patches/patches
