Dawid Weiss commented on LUCENE-6933:
-------------------------------------
Thanks Mark. I don't think I'll use automated scripts, I'll most likely put
together something that will translate raw history revision-by-revision
(cleaning up the dump local SVN first). It can take a long time if it's a
one-time conversion. I realize it's mind-bending, but let's see if it works.
I'll need some time to work through it, these are huge files.
> Create a (cleaned up) SVN history in git

> Key: LUCENE-6933
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6933
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Dawid Weiss
> Assignee: Dawid Weiss
>
> Goals:
> - selectively drop unnecessary stuff from history (cms/, javadocs/, JARs and
> perhaps other binaries),
> - *preserve* history of all core sources. So svn log IndexWriter has to go
> back all the way back to when Doug was young and pretty. Ooops, he's still
> pretty of course.
> - provide a way to link git history with svn revisions. I would, ideally,
> include a "imported from svn:rev XXX" in the commit log message.
> - annotate release tags and branches. I don't care much about interim
> branches -- they are not important to me (please speak up if you think
> otherwise).
> Non goals
> - no need to preserve "exact" history from SVN (the project may skip JARs,
> etc.). Ability to build ancient versions is not an issue.
