Ok, I've created /gitroot/jpa . You can init the repo with: initrepo /gitroot/jpa/org.eclipse.jpa.reponame.git -M. (In reply to comment #1) > Ok, I've created /gitroot/jpa . You can init the repo with: > > initrepo /gitroot/jpa/org.eclipse.jpa.reponame.git > > -M. Er, that should be org.eclipse.gemini.jpa. Also, what is the best way to execute the initrepo command if I don't have shell privs? To be consistent with the other gemini projects, I've renamed /gitroot/jpa to /gitroot/gemini.jpa. You can run the initrepo command from the restricted shell. If you'd like to perform the conversion yourself, we can provision you (or someone on your team) a shell. We can also do the migration for you if you'd like. Please confirm... If you can do the migration that would be even sweeter. (I'm not one to turn down offers of assistance :-) So you can just dump all the code from our svn into git? What happens to the history? I guess we just keep the svn around for that? I have held off developing on our next release, so now would be a good time to cut over. Thanks, -Mike Can you let me know the particulars of what you are offering to do, and the parameters of what I should or should not be doing? For example, when should I stop changing code in my current SVN? We can import (as best we can) your SVN history into your new Git repo. If you want things structured differently, that's another story. Your best bet is to tell us what you'd like for us to do, and suggest a day where you can afford to not write to SVN. On that day, we'll make your SVN read-only and import it. We can also do a quick trial run -- we can import SVN now into your git repo, you can try it out, and we can start all over and do the real thing another day. That sounds great! I can agree not to write to the SVN for today if you have the time to start it going. Shouldn't take very long as the project is not that big. Let me know when it is done and I will take a look at the results. Thanks! I've created /gitroot/gemini.jpa/org.eclipse.gemini.jpa.git and imported your SVN repo. Let me know if there are any problems. -M. Things look good to me so far. Thanks very much for your help! -Mike Closing as per previous comments. |
