From CVS to * in little time ============================ Prerequisites: - ruby (1.8.5 known working) - fromcvs, <https://github.com/corecode/fromcvs> - rcsparse, <https://github.com/corecode/rcsparse> (ruby module) - Ruby/RBTree gem - for git: git-fast-import, part of git 1.5 - for db/commitset: sqlite3 + sqlite3-ruby (available as gem) How to convert a CVS repo ------------------------- There is still a nice frontend missing, so you have to invoke the scripts by hand. % mkdir gitdest && (cd gitdest && git init) % ruby togit.rb /path/to/cvsroot modulename gitdest % cd gitdest && git-repack -a -f -d # optional, saves 20% or so If you want to get nice author names, create the file authormap in CVSROOT: % cat << EOF > /path/to/cvsroot/CVSROOT/authormap corecode Simon 'corecode' Schubert <corecode@fs.ei.tum.de> jdoe Jon H. Doe <hannidoe@example.net> branch-fixup CVS repo conversion <flames@example.net> EOF That's about for the quickstart. Be sure to report conversion errors or runtime issues (possibly due to obscure CVS repo activity) to me. -- Simon Schubert <2@0x2c.org>
