I'm no guru in any of SVN, Git or Fossil: A (hopefully short) script blessed by the masters would be a massive help.
As for Wiki export, I'd guess doing it by crawling and scraping the Trac pages followed by an HTML import into Fossil may be easiest, though a separate pass may be needed to capture unlinked pages. And I have no clue how best to move Trac bug lists over. Ugh. I'm guessing there are deep configuration issues to be considered to lower the impedance mismatch between Fossil and Trac, in order to simplify the subsequent conversion or export/import. At worst, doing screen-scrapes to capture Trac bugs as wiki pages, then create new Fossil bugs containing the title and a link to the wiki, after which bugs that "matter" can be hand-converted when/if/as they get updated. But that's a pretty bad "worst" case. -BobC -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ron Wilson Sent: Thursday, May 10, 2012 3:29 PM To: Fossil SCM user's discussion Subject: Re: [fossil-users] Trac-to-Fossil Was: Wysiwyg wiki editing. Was: Side-by-side wiki editing? At least as far as version control is concerned, TRAC is a front end to SVN. you might have to import the exported SVN repository to Git, then re-export from Git then import to Fossil. I don't not know how TRAC issue tracking and wiki pages can be exported. But then you'd still have to translate TRAC's wiki markup to Fossil's or a markup supported by a client side wiki renderer.
