An excerpt from recent "What's cooking":
* fa/remote-svn (2012-08-28) 16 commits
- Add a test script for remote-svn
- remote-svn: add marks-file regeneration
- Add a svnrdump-simulator replaying a dump file for testing
- remote-svn: add incremental import
- remote-svn: Activate import/export-marks for fast-import
- Create a note for every imported commit containing svn metadata
- vcs-svn: add fast_export_note to create notes
- Allow reading svn dumps from files via file:// urls
- remote-svn, vcs-svn: Enable fetching to private refs
- When debug==1, start fast-import with "--stats" instead of "--quiet"
- Add documentation for the 'bidi-import' capability of remote-helpers
- Connect fast-import to the remote-helper via pipe, adding 'bidi-import' capability
- Add argv_array_detach and argv_array_free_detached
- Add svndump_init_fd to allow reading dumps from arbitrary FDs
- Add git-remote-testsvn to Makefile and .gitignore
- Implement a remote helper for svn in C
(this branch is used by fa/vcs-svn.)
A GSoC project. Looked promising.
Waiting for comments from mentors and stakeholders.
* fa/vcs-svn (2012-08-28) 4 commits
- vcs-svn: remove repo_tree
- vcs-svn/svndump: rewrite handle_node(), begin|end_revision()
- vcs-svn/svndump: restructure node_ctx, rev_ctx handling
- svndump: move struct definitions to .h
(this branch uses fa/remote-svn.)
A GSoC project. Looked promising.
Waiting for comments from mentors and stakeholders.
