The conversion run I started this afternoon is now running git-fast-import. That part takes about four hours because that's how long git-fast-import takes to process a 240 GB file with all the GCC history (and then git gc --aggressive, to get the repository down to a reasonable size, takes an hour or two). So tomorrow I expect to have a repository ready to make available. (In fact, two variants - one with branch and tag names essentially as in SVN, one with rearrangements done as suggested by Richard.) And that will be along with the results of validation, which I hope will be clean as we've fixed all the issues shown up in previous rounds of validation. This includes the part of Richard's commit message improvements deduced purely from the existing commit messages. It doesn't include the part based on Bugzilla data (because the attempt to download the data from Bugzilla fell over). I expect the next conversion run, started after that one finishes, to include both parts of Richard's commit message improvements, as well as an improvement to commit attribution extraction from ChangeLog files (to include attributions from ChangeLog.<branch> files, not just plain ChangeLog). -- Joseph S.
