I will not be able to complete the conversion today. First, this is a big project with some of the operations taking an hour each time you try them. So if any test fails it takes a long time to find out what is going on. The latest problem is the the svndump file clearly shows commit messages for deleted files, but "svn log" using the svn repository generated _locally_ from that dumpfile shows no such commit messages. OTOH, SF SVN repositories I have looked at do show commit messages associated with deletions. The working hypothesis I am pursuing now is I used outdated software to create the local svn repository from the dumpfile so I will build the latest svn software (which will be much more consistent with the svn software that SF is using) to see if I can create a local repository from the svndump file where it will be possible to extract deletion commit messages with svn log. If that works, it should considerably reduce the noise in diffs for ChangeLogs so I can find any other problems more easily. More tomorrow... Meanwhile, CVS is still open for business.
