Hi! I'm trying to import part of a perforce repo with git-p4. However, git-p4 appears to try to read all the repo into memory (and moreover seems to need about twice as much memory as repo). Once it runs out of swap, it dies (unsurprisingly). I think it's failing in readP4Files(), where it appears to read the entire repository in one go with "p4 -G -x - print". Can I just rework this function to do stuff one file at a time? Or is that dumb?
It's probably a lot slower, and since git works with changesets it probably won't work all that good unless you somehow construct some middle-stage which you can then feed to git-fastimport or some such. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.ericsson@xxxxxx OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 -- 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
