Same happens to me running with options --revision 418:447 --authors authors-transform.txt --notags --nobranches --trunk /blabla
For me it worked with --notags
, --nobranches
, --notrunk
Same problem here. --notags , --nobranches , --notrunk did not help
Also tried: - svn2git https://xyz.xyz.com/svn --trunk /svnrepopath/trunk --tags /svnrepopath/tags --banches /svnrepopath/branches ... no luck
Working at it for a while but nothing seems to work. I have removed the .git folder between every try. please share if I you have solved this issue.
@kevinwong1983 is that local or remote ?
If local do you have the svnserve
( or similar ) installed correctly ?
Also.. Did you setup the authors.txt
author mapping ? Did you tried to give only the root path ? ( e.g. .../svnrepopath/
)
same problem I am facing too, tried multiple options, notrags, nobranch, with author file without author file, but none worked so far
@x9t9 yes, it works like that but we have standard layout with branches, tags and trunk.
I couldn't use svn2git but i tried following 2 options and both worked for me.
For complete SVN repo migration - https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/migrating-overview For selective branches/tags - http://www.janosgyerik.com/practical-tips-for-using-git-with-large-subversion-repositories/
I ran the following:
> md Repos
> cd Repos
> md Database
> cd Database
> svn2git svn://my.svn.server/Database --authors ..\authors.txt --no-minimize-url
Initialized empty Git repository in D:/Repos/Database/.git/
command failed:
git checkout -f master
> git checkout -f master
error: pathspec 'master' did not match any file(s) known to git.
The .git folder was created in \Repos\Database, but total size was only 28KB with 16 files in 14 folders. I have multiple projects in the repository, each of which uses standard layout (this run was obviously for the database project, which I know contains hundreds of commits, with hundreds of files - one file per database object in a multi-gigabyte database).
svnserve is installed correctly and running without problem, as I am running our current TeamCity builds from it.
I am struggling with this too. I have spent a day attempting various permutations and have been unsuccessful to get svn2git
working -- it keeps running into the git checkout -f master
failure.
I was able to get a vanilla git svn clone
working. When comparing that experience to svn2git
, I seem to have narrowed the problem down to the prefix switch ( --prefix=svn/
). If I run git svn init
without specifying prefix, then I can run git svn fetch
successfully.
In my case, my URL is like: http://host/svn/repo/project/trunk
-- where the project follows the standard layout. The prefix is computed as: --prefix=svn/
Why is that prefix important?
I should mention that I am using git version 2.12.2.windows.1
on a Windows 10 (64-bit) machine with svn version 1.8.13
installed and ruby 2.2.6p396 (2016-11-15 revision 56800) [x64-mingw32]
.
I am starting to wonder if #241 is the root cause since I was successful with the --stdlayout
option.
I am now 100% convinced that my inability to run this successfully on Windows was due to #241. This ran fine on Linux, and I can witness the tick issue.
Year later, no answer, huh?
In the end I gave up, and just committed the most recent version in SVN to Git; if people wanted the history prior to that, then the old SVN repo was left running. TBH I don't think anyone has...
Hi guy's, I did this to solve this problem in windows SVN repo
Removing quotes around #{trunk}, #{tag} and #{branch} from migration.rb file.
I confirm that the solution provided by @jooheazy works flawlessly. You saved me, thanks!
I found another workaround.
I was able to push all the code to git and also the corresponding tags
This might be a quick one but I tried couple of options and nothing seems to work. My SVN repo URL is correct too, it's just above the trunk. Appreciate any help/direction. Let me know if you need any more info. I am trying this on Win7 64-bit machine.
