I took a stab at this. The result is on github at https://github.com/thomasvs/dirvish I'm attaching the script and authors.txt file I used to do the conversion so others who know the dirvish history better can adapt it. In particular: - I used 1_2_1 as master (I'm confused about the different branches and have no idea which of the 1_3 ones would be considered 'master') - there was no way I could convince svn2git to accept branches in the root of the repository; instead I just did some svn mv's before the conversion - I guessed the authors.txt file from names on the mailing list - The history looks ok-ish - some of the 1.3 branches are 'floating'; not sure if they were created like that out of the blue or if the migration loses anchors - I delete a bunch of intermediary branches (with @rev) because I don't see what they could be useful for - You can rerun the script to continue if you want to experiment (in fact, you'll have to run it at least twice if you don't use the authors.txt file, because it will regenerate one for you to edit) - I moved contrib and README to this new master (some of the 1.3 branches have contrib in the same place, so I thought it was the right thing to do) If someone feels adventurous, one way to make it better might be to actually edit the svn dump and rewrite history to land the branches in place to begin with; I've done things like that in the past but it was painful. If you actually change this script, let me know, and if someone wants to be the official dirvish master on github, feel free to put it there and let me know as well.
