I got busy with other things and haven't had a chance to get back to this until now. I very much appreciate the help but I'm still unclear on this part: >git-svn has (IMO) a good branching UI, but can be very slow for large repositories. > >[1] http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/158940/focus=159151 : note this thread is almost a year out of date now, and even I know much better ways to go about this now -- but the scripts are not written. I don't really understand that. So...how do I convert from svn to git while keeping branches and tags intact? If it's automated, I don't care about speed: I can just start it and move on to other things while it's working. -- View this message in context: http://git.661346.n2.nabble.com/SVN-Git-but-with-special-changes-tp6840904p7162793.html Sent from the git mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- 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
