Dear mozart hackers,
(Warning, long email, but reactions are needed)
- History: we will try to keep the history of changes in the move
from svn to git (Yves and I are investigating on this), but if this
is too complicated, we will simply create a snapshot of the current
mozart state, and start a new git repository from it. In other
words, keeping history is not a priority. Anyone interested in the
history can have a look at the svn repository hosted at UCL/GForge.
If you're smart with 'git svn' command lines, it is possible to import
the whole history, provided that branching in svn has been done in a
standard fashion.
It is currently in the standard fashion, but it's not a 'pure' svn repository.
It's actually an automatic migration from cvs to svn some years ago. So, we
have a good guess that it can work, but we don't want to promise anything yet.
It's a kind of old repository.
If variations of:
git svn clone svn+ssh://user@url/repo -T trunk -b branches -t tags
do not work and you find out that branching in svn hasn't been done in a
proper way, then it's no point trying to import the branches. Just
import the trunk, and make snapshots of svn branches.
My 2 cents from my own experience.
Thanks Guillaume,
Boriss
