Doesn't git have builtin svn repo conversion?

[-] Rikj000@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 5 days ago

Yes, the script uses git svn under the hood,
however it simplifies the process of a fair amount of steps,
to just x1 easy CLI command with an in/output parameter.

Can it do GIT -> SVN?

[-] thingsiplay@beehaw.org 8 points 5 days ago

Why would you want do that?

[-] itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 5 days ago

To test that SVN -> GIT works?

[-] thingsiplay@beehaw.org 4 points 5 days ago

Actually pretty good reason.

[-] itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 5 days ago

not really, haha

[-] ReversalHatchery@beehaw.org 1 points 4 days ago

why?

Because developing a tool solely for a roundtrip test is probably a waste of time. Perhaps it's an easier exercise than I think but I would have thought you could manually test it far quicker and more thoroughly than by automating the process
