Re: [Gramps-devel] Git Mirror

[Nick H. <nic...@ho...>]

John, Benny,

I have created a wiki page to describing my trial of using git for 
Gramps development:

http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Git

Maybe others will find this useful.

I have some more questions though:

I created a single .gitignore file in the top level directory and 
committed it.

1.  I was asked twice for my password.  Is there any way to store this 
as subversion does?
2.  A branch called "master" was created.  Why is this?
3.  No svn properties were set on the new file.  Can I set them using 
git-svn?
4.  There is a "git svn create-ignore" command which creates .gitignore 
files from subversion properties.  Should we use this?
5. Is it safe to use "git svn rebase" to get commits that are more 
recent than those in the mirror?  I notice that the username and email 
address do not get translated.

So far I like using git!   Using it in conjunction with subversion does 
add extra complexity though.

Nick.
