RepoReaper

I've now managed to export the Subversion repository bits to their own repos on Github.

The following repository subtrees have now been exported:

• host is now at RepRapBathHost
• firmware is now at RepRapBathFirmware

The procedure I used is as follows:

• Create a new directory to hold the new repo:

mkdir fw
cd fw

• Clone the required subtree to a new git repository, ignoring metadata:

git svn clone https://reprap.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/reprap/trunk/software/firmware/ --no-metadata

This will preserve all history, do no user remapping, and create a repository without svn metadata. All svn metadata will be converted to git metadata. The repository will now track the SVN repository.

• Change into the new repository directory:

cd firmware

• Verify that the revision history was imported:

git log

• Create a new repository on Github
• Set the new repository as the local repository's remote:

git remote add origin [email protected]:kliment/RepRapBathFirmware.git

• Push the entire history to the remote:

git push -u origin master

To push new changes from the SVN to Github:

• Enter the local repository dir

cd fw/firmware

• Fetch new revisions from SVN:

git svn fetch

• Push said revisions to Github as commits:

git push origin master
