Hi all,

I tried to import Xenomai svn repo but the script failed:

git-svnimport -v -C xenomai.git http://svn.gna.org/xenomai/trunk
RA layer request failed: PROPFIND request failed on '/xenomai/trunk': 
PROPFIND of '/xenomai/trunk': 405 Method Not Allowed 
(http://svn.gna.org) at /usr/bin/git-svnimport line 135

Git version is 1.4.0.
Anybody can help me?


TIA,
llandre

Looks like the repository is simply not accessible by http.

    $ svn co http://svn.gna.org/xenomai/trunk
    svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/xenomai/trunk'
    svn: PROPFIND of '/xenomai/trunk': 405 Method Not Allowed (http://svn.gna.org)

git-svnimport imports a complete svn repository including its
branches and tags (as long as the svn repo follows the official
layout).  So you would run it against the repository's root:

    git svnimport svn://svn.gna.org/xenomai/

If you want to import/track the trunk only (and maybe commit to it),
git-svn from git's contrib is probably what you want.

Regards,
Dennis

Dennis,

thanks a lot for your help.
This command starts fine but ...

git-svnimport -C xenomai2.git svn://svn.gna.org/xenomai

... after a while it fails:
