When using git-cvsimport, the author is inferred from the cvs commit, e.g. cvs commit logname is foobaruser, then the author field in git results in: Author: foobaruser <foobaruser> Which is not perfect, but perfectly acceptable given the circumstances. The default git-svn import however, results in: Author: foobaruser <foobaruser@acf43c95-373e-0410-b603-e72c3f656dc1> When using mixes of imports, from CVS and SVN into the same git repository, you'd like to harmonise the imports to the format cvsimport uses. git-svn supports an experimental option --use-log-author which currently results in the same logentry as without that option when no From: or Signed-off-by: is found in the logentry ($email currently ends up empty, and hence is generated again). This patches harmonises the result with cvsimport, and makes git-svn --use-log-author produce: Author: foobaruser <foobaruser> Signed-off-by: Stephen R. van den Berg <srb@xxxxxxx> --- git-svn.perl | 6 ++++-- 1 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/git-svn.perl b/git-svn.perl index b151049..67726c1 100755 --- a/git-svn.perl +++ b/git-svn.perl @@ -2426,13 +2426,15 @@ sub make_log_entry { $name_field = $1; } if (!defined $name_field) { - # + if (!defined $email) { + $email = $name; + } } elsif ($name_field =~ /(.*?)\s+<(.*)>/) { ($name, $email) = ($1, $2); } elsif ($name_field =~ /(.*)@/) { ($name, $email) = ($1, $name_field); } else { - ($name, $email) = ($name_field, 'unknown'); + ($name, $email) = ($name_field, $name_field); } } if (defined $headrev && $self->use_svm_props) { -- 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
