Transfer the trackers from sourceforge

[Utumno]

@lojack5 : add what's left to do when you get the chance.

Maybe have a look at https://github.com/ttencate/sf2github ? If you decide doing it this way I would recommend doing it in a throw away repo once first as we can't delete issues - in case anything goes wrong.

Also I have no admin rights so I don't think I can do much - hilfe!

@Utumno: I set you up as admin on the sourceforge page. As mentioned in #58, I think postponing this would be ok. I'd have to check out that tool to see if it could be done faster, I think there will still be lots of manual tweaking however.

@lojack5 - thanks ! - if you could check the tool it'd be great - I plan to start this around thursday if the tool proves not an option. Open bugs starting with 131 Possible CBash patcher bugs ?

I'd say transfer only open bugs - no need to clutter this repo with all the closed bugs

On the other hand it would be nice if we could export all the metadata from the svn and leave them here as a blob somewhere for safekeeping. Is this possible ?

So I tried to go at the script to transfer stuff, however I ran into two issues (one I could get around, the other not):

1. SourceForge doesn't want to export the Oblivionworks data anymore (which the script parses to generate the Github Issues. Specifically, it says "Preparing your data...bla bla...you'll recieve an email with download instructions", but I never get the email.
2. The script needs a username/password, but I use 2-factor authentication, and the script doesn't support that. This one I could get around by disabling 2-factor, but problem 1 makes the issue moot.

@lojack5 thank you

On 1 - could you bug the SVN admins ? Scripting etc are not my strong points and setting this up will suck a lot of my time. If 1 can't be resolved well then - copyPaste() time

EDIT: I would like to have this in 304.4 after all

[lojack5]

I've contacted support, but no response yet. Might as well start doing it by hand again.

We need some bugs to generate the posts

@lojack5: Managed to export the data (just worked for me)
bugs : https://www.dropbox.com/s/ae7cttxr749814r/oblivionworks-backup-2014-03-31-002841.zip
enhancements: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6e13l55bobs7vsj/oblivionworks-backup-2014-03-31-004657.zip

Have a look if you have time - better on a throwaway repo (we can't delete issues !)

[lojack5]

Looked over the dumps real quick to be sure it was up to date (had that problem before with the second post data), seems to be good.

I think I'll filter through it semi-manually at first to clean out closed stuff and anything already ported over, then test importing eventually in my "test" repo. Not sure when I want to go through and get rid of bugs we don't want ported over, I'll figure something out.

Not much time but when I find some I'd like to go on with 304.4 and I need some bugs to feed the scripts at meta - @lojack5 if you could specify some (or a range) I could transfer them manually from the SVN
