Hello,
In testing last week it took about 5 hours to clone from svn using
git-svn. I've been trying to trying to get a version of the repository
ready but its been taking longer than I wanted.
I think what we will need to do is to clone it locally and prepare it
and then upload to github.
My java migration program can extract the first and last names of the
developers and create the git-authors.txt usable when importing. I
changed the email addresses to [email protected] since
this is an actual routable address. (This is what Martin Funk used in
his wicketpit migration from 2009).
In my testing I have:
1. checked out the entire project history into master (i.e. no branches)
2. used JGit to rewrite the entire history using the git users and
removing the svn-git-id lines.
This part works fine and the accented characters (umlauts) have been
inserted properly. I could not get git-svn to write them in properly.
The next part involves extracting branches from the master. My code
works for identifying the first commit to contain a path and to extract
from the original commits the branch sub-tree. But I still need to
delete the non-branch files on the initial branch commit.
When the repository is large using windows is not recommended (I was
using windows 7 on a quad core 3.4 Ghz Athlon and the git performance on
my Xen vps was 50% faster). It was taking me 45 minutes to checkout
master. Yesterday I bought a faster hard disk and installed Linux and
the performance seems a lot faster.
I think I should be able to get it to work today (I'm on vacation now so
my productivity should be improved).
I'll update the list in a few hours if my git repository looks like it
will be viable.
Mike
import is running really slow, even from a local copy of svn repo.
going to take a while...

I removed everyone from the SF.net project except Igor, Martijn, and myself.
I took SVN commit permissions away from the three of us. This should
prevent anyone from accidentally committing to the repo now that it is
moved.
Once I hear from Igor that we are "good to go" at GH, I'll "svn delete *" or
"svn mkdir ALL_CODE_IS_MOVED; svn mv * ALL_CODE_IS_MOVED/" and "svn add
README_FIRST_WE_HAVE_MOVED_TO_GITHUB.txt".
