Hey all, I've cloned the entire KDE4 history of kopete (since r615086) at github.com using git-svn. The entire history fits in 14MB, much less than the 29MB of files, or the 44MB SVN Checkout. Hooray!!
http://github.com/gja/kopete/ Also note that since r932873, kopete builds outside of kdenetwork You can change the svn credentials using the script called git-kde-svn-addcredentials ( http://gja.in/pub/git-kde-svn-addcredentials ). This ties the checkout to a particular svn username, and can only be done once. (see below for example usage) Sorry, this does not work with anonsvn :(. Anyone who wants to use kopete using git-svn can just do the following steps: 1) Clone my repository (or fork, if you wish) $ git clone git://github.com/gja/kopete.git 2) Change into the new directory $ cd kopete 3) Download the script, and execute it to set the username and path $ git-kde-svn-addcredentials <username> trunk/KDE/kdenetwork/kopete 4) Update the repository (this step regenerates git-svn's cache) $ git svn rebase 5) Branch, and do your work :) $ git checkout -b mybranch Please note that the script in step 3 removes the remote called origin. This means you cannot pull/push back to (my) git repo. Use git-svn rebase and dcommit to keep your repository up to date. -- Tejas Dinkar http://gja.in _______________________________________________ kopete-devel mailing list kopete-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kopete-devel
