Hi all,
We are currently using a mixture of git and svn to manage a project with
an array of subprojects. We use git primarily for its excellent
branching and merging support, and as a means of more effectively
managing commits etc... We're not yet ready to make the leap entirely
to git and find subversion still has a role, primarily due to some 3rd
party upstream (e.g. Apache) projects using svn. SVN is also better
supported by some of our tools/systems.
Our project is made up of a number of subprojects, and I'd like to use
git submodules to easily track and lock changes in component versions.
git submodules appear to do exactly this, versioning the meta-repo with
each subproject locked at a specific commit/SHA-1.
My question is; is there anyway to easily do this but have git use
git-svn manage the submodule? I think this makes sense and suspect it
would be possible to do, though it looks like it's currently not a
feature. Is this a feature anyone else would find useful?
Off the top of my head, just point your submodule to the incremental
git-svn import of the upstream repository and you're good to go.
