It is. Here's the command I use:
$ hg convert -A ~/authors.map \
--config convert.hg.usebranchnames=0 --config convert.hg.clonebranches=1 \
~/in/naviserver-HEAD ns-HEAD-hg
Where authors.map is a file which maps sf username like 'sdeasey' to
mercurial users like 'Stephen Deasey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>', and the
branch stuff is saying I prefer to represent branches as separate
repos.
However, I have done a bunch of clean ups of the commit messages, some
squashing of commits which should have been one commit, or where a
followup commit fixed a typo or some other trivial mistake with a log
message of 'oops...'.
So the conversion is 'accurate', but better than the original :-)
Even if you're not interested in mercurial, you might want to browse
the aolserver repos here for this reason alone:
http://www.bitbucket.org/aolserver/aolserver/overview/
http://www.bitbucket.org/aolserver/aolserver-40x/overview/
For example, according to the AOLserver ChangeLog the last change was
made in June, and it's one of only two changes made this year:
http://aolserver.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/aolserver/aolserver/ChangeLog?revision=1.386&view=markup
Browsing the mercurial shortlog on bitbucket you can see there's
actually been 9 changes by 4 different authors.
This would be useful for these guys:
http://openacs.org/forums/message-view?message_id=2438982
to whom it looks, on the outside, like nothing's been touched in
either aolserver or naviserver for years...
