Following needed for Audalyzer access.

Setup and Checkout

Initialize the repo:

  git svn init -s https://moonblink.googlecode.com/svn/ moonblink --username=<<username>>

- Note that the 'trunk' subdir has been removed. Important!

Determine last changed revision

This is not necessarily the same as the last revision:

  svn info https://moonblink.googlecode.com/svn/

Note that this is the 'svn' command, not 'git svn'. In the output, find the line with 'Last Changed Rev', eg.:

  Path: svn
  URL: https://moonblink.googlecode.com/svn
  Repository Root: https://moonblink.googlecode.com/svn
  Repository UUID: 3248975e-79f9-11de-8a13-ad0aff062799
  Revision: 1025
  Node Kind: directory
  Last Changed Author: <<username>>
  Last Changed Rev: 1025
  Last Changed Date: 2012-05-24 15:14:03 +0200 (do, 24 mei 2012)

Retrieve given revision

Selecting the latest revision will avoid having to checkout the entire history. This saves on disk space and checkout time (with 1024 revisions, you don't want to go there).

Say, you want revision 1025 (from output previous step):

  git svn fetch -r 1025 --username=<<username>>

Make your git repository ignore everything the Subversion one is (takes a long time):

  git svn show-ignore >> .git/info/exclude

Update the local repository

Pulls in the remote changes to your local repo

  git svn rebase

Probably a good idea to do this often.

Update the remote directory

Commits your local changes to the svn repo.

Branches

Source

Create a new branch in SVN:

  git svn branch -m "Audalyzer code changes" audalyzer_refactor --username=<<username>>

- Add -n option for a dry run

View remote branches:

  git branch -r

Checkout branch

  git checkout -b audalyzer_refactor-svn remotes/audalyzer_refactor

The -svn suffix is to avoid warnings of the form

  warning: refname 'audalyzer_refactor' is ambiguous.

Update branch

  git checkout audalyzer_refactor-svn
  git svn rebase
