tracking remotes with Git

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



        I'm using Git (1.5.3.5 debian 1) for about a day or so, and I'm
        quite impressed that it allows tracking remote repositories
        (I've tried CVS and SVN) so easily with `git-cvsimport' and
        `git-svn'.  However, I've ran into a couple of problems with
        them:

        * it looks like `git-cvsimport' uses its own CVS protocol
          implementation which doesn't support compression; I've tried
          to clone a repository of a project hosted in CVS since circa
          1998 and it 20 MiB or so to obtain revisions until 2000 or so;
          any ways to minimize traffic?

        * how many revisions will `git-svn fetch' obtain from the SVN
          repository? I had to run it for several times to get the full
          history; I've tried to use (undocumented) `--fetch-all'
          option, but it appears to help (may be but for a little.)

        BTW, does http://.../git.git/ mean a ``bare repository (i. e., a
        would be /git/.git/) for Git''?

PS.  I wonder, if this mailing list accepts mail from unsubscribed
        `From:'s?
