SVN to Git Plan

1. Convert SVN repository to a Git Repository.

Steps:

1. Download svn2git tool: https://github.com/nirvdrum/svn2git

//Add Commands Pull desired SVN repository

   //Add Commands

1. Create Text Document of Authors to link to Git Accounts
   1. create authors.txt

add in all authors with the following format: jcoglan = James Coglan <jcoglan@never-you-mind.com> stnick = Santa Claus <nicholas@lapland.com>

       Recommended to link everyone’s account but if you can’t, it’s not required to link everyone’s account, but you must provide an email, if only a made up one.

Convert the repositories with the git commands: $ svn2git http://source.usc.edu/svn/mesh_partitioner/ --trunk trunk --tags tags --nobranches --authors ~/authors.txt Note: --trunk trunk (the trunk argument is the name of the trunk repository) -tags tags (tags is the name of your repository of tags) Push to the desired git remote. (In this example we use github) Add Remote git remote add <remote-name> <remote-url> git remote origin git@github.com:SCECcode/CyberShake.git Commit git add . git commit -m “Initial Commit of Converted SVN to Git Repository Code” Use tags command git push --tags
