It sounds to me like the major hurdles remaining there are getting svn-fe to handle dumpfile v3 and handling branches/tags. Is that correct? We're doing better than that- when the whole thing is complete, we should have perfectly seamless two-way compatibility. But yes, you're right- there are several non-trivial tasks to handle, the top three of which are: 1. Making svn-fe git-aware (and hence handle dumpfile v3) 2. Writing a fast-export to dumpfilev3 converter 3. Implementing the branch/ tag mapper in an extensible way Don't worry about it though- we're all working hard on it :) -- Ram -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
