Hi all,
we just want to migrate from subversion to git, but so far all attempts
to do that resulted in missing commit information.
So we have an svn repo with multiple sub-repos. The trouble is now that
those sub-repos have their own trunk/tags (no branches) directories, but
actually those projects are very dependent on each other and lots of
commits go to many sub-project in a single commit.
So our new git repository shall meld all sub-projects into a new common
repository.
So we have something like this:
svn-root -> main-project
/ | \
/ | \
proj1 proj2 proj{n}
/ \ / \ / \
/ \ / \ trunk tags
/ \ trunk tags
trunk tags
/ \
tag1 tag{2...n}
I think the same issue has been asked a few times before, for example here:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/163491
but I still do not know how to properly convert the old structure into a
new global one. So we simply want to have:
branches,tags <- main-project -> {proj1, proj2, ..., projN}
I think the above link suggests something like
[svn-remote "svn"]
url = https://some-repo-url
fetch=/:refs/remotes/svnroot
fetch = build_scripts/trunk:refs/remotes/build_scripts/trunk
fetch = create_repos/trunk:refs/remotes/create_repos/trunk
When I'm going to to 'svn fetch' this, files from different projects are
going to be in the same directory. But of course, the project directory
structure is supposed to stay as it it.
Any ideas what I still could try to do?
Thanks,
Bernd
