"Error importing commits to GitHub" from an SVN repository #47

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Try to export the project proyecto-val to GitHub

What is the expected output? 
The project migrated to Github

What do you see instead?
I got an e-mail with the folowing error:

Aw, Snap!
There was an error migrating proyecto-val to GitHub.
The error is as follows:
Project: proyecto-val
GitHub code import failure: Error! There was an error importing commits.

The project is using 13.9 MB of the quota and I checked and it doesn't have any 
100MB+ file, So I don't know what is causing this.

We are working with Github to get more specific error messages. In the mean 
time, there are a few known issues that would cause problems with the SVN to 
Git conversion.

- A single file > 100MiB
- The entire repo > 1GiB
- No /trunk folder in the SVN repo

The repo you listed, proyecto-val, doesn't appear to have any of those. (So it 
is probably something else we need to figure out on the GitHub side.)

Our colleagues at GitHub are working to improve their code import APIs (i.e. 
fewer imports failing), as well as improve the error messages sent to clients 
(i.e. tell you exactly why it failed.)

As GitHub improves the import API and its error messages, the Google 
Code-to-GitHub exporter will pick up those changes automatically.

In the mean time, if you do have a consistent error importing your code into 
GitHub please contact GitHub's support at "https://github.com/contact". Please 
include the name of the target repository (e.g. https://github.com/user/repo), 
and they will be able to assist you from there.
