First -- kudos to Eric Wong and company: git-svn can deal with the odd errors and invalid chunks of XML or UTF-8 that SVN spits at me every once in a while. And it "just works" in 99% of the situation. Great stuff. Now... on to my 1% where it doesn't "just work"... I am trying to get a working svn to git gateway for Squirrelmail, and getting in trouble with the tags setting... git --version git version 1.5.2.2.238.g7cbf2f2 For starters - it "just works" if I run git svn init -T trunk -t tags -b branches \ http://squirrelmail.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/squirrelmail git svn fetch However, every tree (for tags, branches and trunk) is prefixed with "squirrelmail" and commits to the toplevel "plugins" directory get in the way. Also, I want the branches and tags to appear in more natural places, so after init, and before fetch, I change .git/config to say: [svn-remote "svn"] url = http://squirrelmail.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/squirrelmail fetch = trunk/squirrelmail:refs/heads/svn/trunk branches = branches/*/squirrelmail:refs/heads/svn/* tags = tags/*/squirrelmail:refs/tags/svn/* and when I do that -- trunk and branches do what I want, but tags aren't imported anymore. :-/ cheers, martin - 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
