Is there any way to specify both using --branches? If not, what's the best way to convert both of them? Thanks much for your help.

Is there any way to specify both using --branches? Yep... just use --branches twice. The documentation for these options even mentions that you can do that, actually. Just saying. :) -Jan ``` ## nolan.ring@emc.com, 2010-10-01 11:24 Subject: RE: Svn2git: question about --branches Message-ID: <4E10ACF241081344B9702AA8C6440440C5B15CB726@MX01A.corp.emc.com> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/4E10ACF241081344B9702AA8C6440440C5B15CB726%40MX01A.corp.emc.com In-Reply-To: <20100930160734.056754ec@jk.gs> ``` Thanks for your response. I'm sorry that I missed it in the documentation. I'm trying using --branches twice but the init command that the -v option returns would seem to indicate that "--branches branches" isn't being picked up. pocadmin@usd-ubuntu-poc:~/pocc4core$ svn2git -v --trunk sspg --branches branches --branches REbranches --tags tags http://poc.emc.com/svn/repos/pocc4core/c4 Running command: git svn init --no-metadata --trunk=sspg --tags=tags --branches=REbranches http://poc.emc.com/svn/repos/pocc4core/c4 Initialized empty Git repository in /home/pocadmin/pocc4core/.git/ Using higher level of URL: http://poc.emc.com/svn/repos/pocc4core/c4 => http://poc.emc.com/svn/repos/pocc4core Running command: git svn fetch The conversion completed overnight and only REbranches was converted. Nothing under branches was converted. Assuming my syntax is correct is there anything else that's obviously wrong? Thanks again. -----Original Message----- From: git-owner@vger.kernel.org [mailto:git-owner@vger.kernel.org] On Behalf Of Jan Krüger Sent: Thursday, September 30, 2010 10:08 AM To: Ring, Nolan Cc: git@vger.kernel.org Subject: Re: Svn2git: question about --branches Hi, --- nolan.ring@emc.com wrote: > Our svn directory structure at the top level is: > [...] > branches > REbranches > [...] > Branches is developer branches; REbranches is release engineering > branches.
