git-svn: how to connect SVN branches?

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

 



Hi,

The project I'm tracking changed servers a couple months ago. To simulate the svn-switch, I edited the svn-remote.url to the new location. `git-svn fetch`, `git-svn dcommit`, and the like seemed to work ok.

When a new release branch came out, I tried adding
svn-remote.branches = releases/*:refs/remotes/svn/*

`git-svn fetch` pulled the new branch. However, it created a whole new history for this branch (new git commits from the beginning of the SVN repo).

Is there some way to tell git/git-svn to connect these two histories?

Pictorially, I have

SVN1@a---SVN2@a---SVN3@b---SVN4@b---SVNtrunk
SVN1@b---SVN2@b---SVN3@b---SVN4@b---SVNbranch

and want

SVN1@a---SVN2@a---SVN3@b---SVN4@b---SVNtrunk
                                 \--SVNbranch

Similarly, if someone cloned a git repo full of git-svn-id's (which indicate that an svn --switch occurred) but without any matching git-svn data, is there a way to `git-svn fetch` from the new SVN repo and autoconnect the git commits?

Thanks,
Daniel
