Hi guys,

I am about to use a git/svn construct for a project next week to track my work and the work of my co-workers.

Reason for this is, that all the others are working on windows-boxes and I am the lonesome gunman, who wants to work with git on a linux box contributing the others on svn side.

There is still a lot of work todo, preparing both backends, git and svn, for serving almost the same content structure.

I think, i can do a little scripting to switch my git-SVN-HEAD to another branch. But how am i intended to export tags to svn?

tags should simply go to <repos>/tags/<tagname> branches go to <repos>/branches/<branchname> master goes to <repos>/trunk

A svn-import should be no problem then. The re-exporting back to one branch or svn_path is described in git-svn howto. but how about tags?

do i have to consider the tags on svn-side manually?
any ideas/hints?

Sincerly Nicolas
