Subject: Migrating a git repository to subversion
Date: Thu, 15 May 2008 16:08:52 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <42dc968d0805151608q2ed89fc8madcd8d341a4ed1df@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I'm a relatively new (2 weeks) user of Git, and so far I really love
it, and I want to educate my co-workers about it.

Having said that, I want to demonstrate git's git<--->svn
capabilities, and currently everybody here has and understands
Subversion.  So, I want to initialize a Subversion repository with my
git history from my local git repository.  Here's what I tried:

1. Create a new, empty subversion project with trunk/tags/branches subdirs.
2. git svn clone http://myhost.com/path/to/project --stdlayout
3. git pull ../git_project
4. git svn dcommit


This put all my files into Subversion, but under a single commit.  Is
there a step I'm missing that would allow git to commit all my
individual git commits to the Subversion repository?  I've done a
bunch of searches, but all the docs seem to focus on cloning an
existing svn repository, as opposed to exporting git repositories to
Subversion.

Thanks in advance,

-Alf
