Not the svn revision number but the git equivalent, I'm not sure but I wonder, if the git history lenght change, the generated git equivalent (the parent commit SHA1 ids) could change, that's the risk I'm talking about, anyway, there're other ways to make the patches in case it doesn't work, a bit more complicated but possible.

Mike and I have already agreed to not touch the code (other than
locally) of FalconJx... How would the SVN revision change between
yesterday and whenever the new git repo is created?

change, I've got doubts.

As you said "Time will tell", cross fingers ;-)

I seem to be able (in my GUI client) to create a patch file for the
commit(s) I have lined up. All I need to do is make a copy of my
commit messages and use those while patching the new 'active'
branch... I think.

Time will tell, I guess ;-)

Not 100% sure because I never did it before but I guess you can do, on

futur inactive project : <sha> is the first commit you did.

git format-patch -1 <sha>

If you moved it from SVN to Git - why cant you just checkin your svn
changes?



Because git has a lot of minor changes in a lot of the same files that
were already changed in SVN. I spent the afternoon yesterday putting
the final touches to my contributions and this morning (before the
excrement hit the ventilator) putting all of that into a whole bunch
of nicely documented commits. If I were to say "f*ck it" and just
overlay all the most recent files over my last SVN copy, I would loose
all of that work.

Also, it's 8 PM over here and I've been at this since 8 AM this
morning. My family is threatening to kick me and my laptop out if I
don't have at least one conherent conversation with them today.

I meant you are on your own  in the sense that I (or anyone else) cannot
get into your computer to fix things for you. Of course I appreciate the



The way I understand it, it should be possible to clone the new repo
INFRA will eventually create to my local machine and make that my
"active project". I can then go into my current (by then "inactive")
project and create patches for each of the commits I prepared there,
and apply those patches to my active git project. Am I missing
something, or does that sound like it should work?
