git-svn and migration

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

 



I was prepared to put up with it not being a bare repository (asides
the extra /.git/ in the URL it's pretty much the same).

On the git host I'd set refs/heads/trunk to be
 ref: refs/remotes/svn/trunk

And I'm hoping that a cron of git svn fetch ; git-update-server-info
will do the trick.  It appeared to keep it in sync when I fetch
downstream. I don't know if I'm being naive though expecting that to
work as I don't grok all that git-svn needs to work properly - but I'm
working on it ;-)

My current plan is for developers to push/pull to git to share amongst
the git-devs, and to push to svn when wanting to share with everyone
else..

[svn user] ---(ci/co)--->[svn] --pull--> [git]
                            ^               ^
                           |               |
                          push          push/pull
                            |               |
                           ---[git user]----
