Just importing them as plain text would totally be sufficient for my use case -- my brain has a CVSTrac wiki rendering engine in it anyway. :-) Or, frankly, just importing them in whatever fashion would be fine for now -- if the wiki renderings are wrong for some of them, I can just fix them by hand. If later on I'm so burdened that I need to write a translator, I can do that. Basically, your wiki consideration does not seriously concern me -- mostly right is good enough here (just need to preserve severities, headlines etc in the right places). I'm quickly moving in the direction of adopting fossil, and the need to ingest my old tickets is I think the one remaining serious issue. Any recommendations or code you can share before I go start hacking on the sql tables directly (which of course I'd prefer to avoid)?

[fossil-users] Ingest CVS repo + cvstrac tickets into fossil?
I've seen some traffic on this list that touches on the issue, but haven't seen anyone offer specific scripts that will let me ingest a CVS repo *plus all my CVSTrac tickets* into fossil. I've successfully used cvs2git to move my repo to a git repo, and successfully imported the git repo into fossil. But my CVSTrac tickets are still orphans. I don't care about wiki pages or reports. The ticket schemas look similar enough that I could possibly hack something on my own, but if DRH or someone else intimately familiar with the two schemas has already written a conversion utility, all the better. Does anyone have such a thing? I see elsewhere in the list that DRH mentioned a 200-some-odd-line Tcl script that does at least part of the task -- is that published somewhere? Thanks to DRH and team for the continued beautiful work. Eric ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
