#svn-git-mirror Simple script to mirror a subversion repository to a git repository
##Dependencies svn-git-mirror depends on a few command line utilities:
- git
- git-svn
- subversion
##Installation
To install svn-git-mirror, simply copy the script to somewhere in your path
or
use the full path name when invoking the script
##Usage First, a workbench needs to be initialized. This workbench then becomes the staging area where svn changes are fetched before pushing them to git. From a command line, run:
svn-git-mirror init -s <subversion_repo_url> -g <git_repo_url> -d <workbench_directory>
Next, whenever you would like to update the workbench with svn changes:
svn-git-mirror update -d <workbech_directory>
Next, whenever you would like to push changes to git, simple run:
svn-git-mirror mirror -d <workbech_directory>
To see the full list of arguments supported, run
svn-git-mirror
##Notes
- To schedule the 'update' to occur periodically, you can schedule the 'svn-git-mirror update' call via cron
- The script assumes a standard svn layout (with branches, trunks, tags). If you have a non-standard layout, supply the "-n" argument to the init command
- An authors file is supported by specifyinhg the "-a" argument. Note that all authors must be defined in this file or running update will fail
