You mean git-svn, right? No, 'dcommit' has not been removed and I have no plans to remove it. -- Eric Wong ``` ## Joakim Tjernlund, 2006-10-15 00:39 Subject: RE: git-svn and u-boot broken.

I don't have it in git 1.4.2.3 Also, I have difficulties to follow the docs on http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-svn.html Any chance you can update it with more examples? Especially one that show how one can do one big initial commit then merge your own changes on top of that?

Hmm.. large imports from git to svn can get confusing, and generally aren't very useful on the svn side since history gets flattened. So I generally don't recommend importing complete git histories into svn. > Something like this > REPO="file:///tmp/SVNuboot" > REPO_PATH="/tmp/SVNuboot" > GIT_REPO="/tmp/mygituboot" > ORG_REPO="/usr/local/src/u-boot" > rm -rf "$REPO_PATH" > rm -rf "$GIT_REPO" > svnadmin create "$REPO_PATH" > svn mkdir -m "initial repo layout" "$REPO"/trunk "$REPO"/branches "$REPO"/tags > mkdir -p "$GIT_REPO" > cd "$GIT_REPO" > git-svn init "$REPO"/trunk > echo [user] >> .git/config > echo name="jocke" >> .git/config > echo email="Joakim.Tjernlund@transmode.se" >> .git/config > git-svn fetch > git checkout -b svn-branch remotes/git-svn > git-fetch "$ORG_REPO" tmcu2:tmcu > git-branch initial-uboot f5e0d03970409feb3c77ab0107d5dece6b7d45c9 > git pull . initial-uboot > # --squash makes one large commit. > git pull --squash . initial-uboot > cg-commit -m "merge up to f5e0d03970409feb3c77ab0107d5dece6b7d45c9" > git-svn commit -q remotes/git-svn..svn-branch > git pull . tmcu # This doesn't work, I get merge conflicts > git-svn commit -q remotes/git-svn..svn-branch > > Anyhow, I am glad to report that after applying your patch all my > problems with went away, no more Too many open file desc, memory > alloc failed or Inappropriate ioctl for device, Thanks a lot. Cool, good to know. It seems like the apply_textdelta returning undef was a result of memory allocation failures, then. -- Eric Wong ``` ## Joakim Tjernlund, 2006-10-15 02:10 Subject: RE: git-svn and u-boot broken.

Also, consider adding what options are supported for each command in the COMMAND section. > > > Also, I have difficulties to follow the docs on > > http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-svn.html > > The most-up-to-date documentation is available here: > > http://git-svn.bogomips.org/git-svn.html > > > Any chance you can update it with more examples? > > Especially one that show how one can do one big initial > > commit then merge your own changes on top of that? > > Hmm.. large imports from git to svn can get confusing, and generally > aren't very useful on the svn side since history gets flattened. > So I generally don't recommend importing complete git histories into > svn. Yes, that's what I am trying to avoid below. Basically I want to commit to SVN the whole u-boot tree as one commit up to the point where I started to do my changes. Then I want my changes per commit on top of that. However I don't want to loose the ability to merge/pull in future updates from denx u-boot tree. I just don't know how to do it, the script below fails when it tries to pull the rest of the tree.
