I have tried all of the suggestions on this list, but so far have been unable to successfully export my Darcs repository to another DVCS. Always the same problem: out of memory (on a 4GB RAM machine). The repos isn't even close to being that size, which is what I cannot grasp.
I am convinced that if I can convince darcs to allow me to pull one patch at a time everything will work out just fine. So what I want to know is this: can I manipulate the inventory file so that it only contains a reference to one patch, then pull it, then subsequently put each patch back in the inventory file (in order) and pull again, rinse, lather, repeat until all patches have been pulled and expect it to work? The problem seems to stem from the fact that the difference between the number of patches in the source and target repos is large and darcs takes its time performing some scan over all of the repo to work out what to pull. If I can convince darcs temporarily that there is only one patch in the source repo to start with (by modifying the inventory file) perhaps I can work around that issue. Anybody see any issues with this? This is my last chance to restore the history from the repository, AFAIK. Thanks, James. -- James _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
