Re: [Cppcms-users] possible to convert to git?

[Ross R. <ros...@gm...>]

For those who wish to git svn clone the repos, this is how I did it in bash:

for d in blog boost_locale cppdb dbixx framework packaging wikipp  ; do
  git svn clone -s --prefix=origin/ --no-minimize-url \
    https://svn.code.sf.net/p/cppcms/code/$d cppcms_$d ;
done

There is one nested SVN repository under wikipp at wikipp/media/sh:

You can mirror that repo with
git svn clone -s --prefix=origin/
http://syntaxhighlighter.googlecode.com/svn/ syntaxhighlighter

Then add that repo as a submodule in wikipp:

cd wikipp/media
git submodule add /path/to/syntaxhighlighter sh
cd sh
git checkout origin/tags/1.5.1
cd ../../
git commit -a -m "Adding syntaxhighlighter version 1.5.1 as submodule"

After all those efforts, an svn co of each respective trunk matches the git
clone except for the svn/git cruft.

I've put the repos on github for my own use in the future:

blog <https://github.com/RossRogers/cppcms_blog>
boost_locale <https://github.com/RossRogers/cppcms_boost_locale>
cppdb <https://github.com/RossRogers/cppcms_cppdb>
dbixx <https://github.com/RossRogers/cppcms_dbixx>
framework <https://github.com/RossRogers/cppcms_framework>
packaging <https://github.com/RossRogers/cppcms_packaging>
wikipp <https://github.com/RossRogers/cppcms_wikipp> ( wikipp doesn't have
the syntaxhighlighter submodule stuff)

Mr. Beilis,

If you wish, I'll make my github mirrors private.  Let me know.

- Ross
