Subversion to Git migration tool

svn2git.php's Issues

new Update Command

UpdateCommand to continously integrate and update the git remote from the git-svn checkout:

• check already migrated branches for updates
• check for new branches & tags
• requires storing branches somewhere (serialize to tmp dir?)
• integration into MigrateCommand (if repository already exists)

note: do not commit to git-svn repository, otherwise you will run into issues when running git svn rebase && git push origin

MigrateCommand enhancements

git svn clone

• configurable --prefix
• configurable --stdlayout
• configurable repository (local) name
• integrate --authors-progfor fallback
• keep empty subversion directories (sometimes they might be necessary) 497e64e

branch & tag migration

• try updating if branch exists (trust cli return codes?)
• move "trunk" to master if applicable
  • git branch -M trunk master;
• cleanup bogus branches of the form "name@REV"
  git for-each-ref --format='%(refname)' refs/heads | grep '@[0-9][0-9]*' | cut -d / -f 3-
• git for-each-ref --format='%(refname)' refs/remotes
  might be a better fit to migrate branches and tags (if we can dispence the tag's messages)?

continue where I left of

• fetch changes from svn if first command did not run successfully (timeout, etc.)

final bare repository after migration (local)

git init --bare $gitinit_params;
git symbolic-ref HEAD refs/heads/trunk;

git remote add bare <final bare repo>;
git config remote.bare.push 'refs/remotes/*:refs/heads/*';
git push bare;

automatically transfer svn-ignore

git svn show-ignore --id trunk >> .gitignore;
git add .gitignore;
git commit --author="svn2git <[email protected]>" -m 'Convert svn:ignore properties to .gitignore.';
