#svn-git-mirror Simple script to mirror a subversion repository to a git repository

##Dependencies svn-git-mirror depends on a few command line utilities:

• git
• git-svn
• subversion

##Installation To install svn-git-mirror, simply copy the script to somewhere in your path

or

use the full path name when invoking the script

##Usage First, a workbench needs to be initialized. This workbench then becomes the staging area where svn changes are fetched before pushing them to git. From a command line, run:

svn-git-mirror init -s <subversion_repo_url> -g <git_repo_url> -d <workbench_directory>

Next, whenever you would like to update the workbench with svn changes:

svn-git-mirror update -d <workbech_directory>

Next, whenever you would like to push changes to git, simple run:

svn-git-mirror mirror -d <workbech_directory>

To see the full list of arguments supported, run

svn-git-mirror

##Notes

• To schedule the 'update' to occur periodically, you can schedule the 'svn-git-mirror update' call via cron
• The script assumes a standard svn layout (with branches, trunks, tags). If you have a non-standard layout, supply the "-n" argument to the init command
• An authors file is supported by specifyinhg the "-a" argument. Note that all authors must be defined in this file or running update will fail
