Easy Peasy it is …
1. A users list in the below format:
rk = Rajesh Kanna <rk@gmail.com>
mk = Mahesh Kanna <mk@gmail.com>
You can also use the fetch-svn-authors.sh script to generate a users list.
2. Run the following commands now.
mkdir my_app_tmp
cd my_app_tmp
git svn init http://svn.company.net/app/trunk/ –no-metadata
git config svn.authorsfile ~/root/users.txt
git svn fetch
All the commands above are self explanatory if you have worked with git a while. Also, the no-metadata is preceded with two hyphens.
3. Now get a clean git repo from the git-svn repo.
git clone my_app_tmp my_app
Note: You can also give –bare switch if you want to host it via gitosis, apache + smart-http, etc.
And thats it, you are done.
