Git-to-svn convert

Is there a reasonable way to convert a Git project to Subversion...
Yeah, I know, blasphemy :-P... but I worked on a project in Git and my boss wants me to put it into Subversion.

git-svn looks to be the tool for this.. however I had some non-linear dev, which doesn't look like it'd commit (In the past I think I tried this and it failed to deal w/ a branch-and-merge...).

Example of what I mean...:

a - b -
`c'

As to how to pull the repository into subversion.. how would I do that? git-svn init ?

i think you have two options:

- use some 3rd-party tool like tailor

- first you should rewrite your history by creating a linear history then git-svn can dcommit your changes to svn

Hi Thomas,

I think Andrew McMillan had written a few scripts to "export" a git repo to SVN and CVS. Not sure whether the code is public. But at least for a while, the Mahara project was using git with SVN and CVS "readonly" exported repos, a bit like the BK->CVS of yore. He may have been using git-svn though.

cheers,

martin

My code is an embarrasingly ugly, gruesome hack, but it (sort of) works...

I use it to keep the SVN and CVS trees up to date on Sourceforge for DAViCal ( http://rscds.sf.net/ ) from the Git tree.

Cheers,
Andrew.

Is this really happening?

Where might I find the code? I checked out git.catalyst.net.nz ... but I couldn't find anything that seemed to be a sync tool... I figure I'd give it a try before manually rebasing or progressively cherry-picking a new tree...
