Hi !

I have been trying different strategies to keep subversion repository in sync with a git repository (on github).

Some details with pictures can be found here: http://zenadmin.org/en/documentation/page439.html .

I have tried to use a single database to pull/push from github and dcommit to the old subversion repository but I get lots of conflicts and duplicates (see link above).

I have then tried to create a "pull" only clone to dcommit, but it looses the commit messages and replaces then with a merge message. At least this solution keeps the github repository clean.

What is the canonical way to do this ?
Many thanks for your help.
