We're a C# development shop, and I've gone through the trouble of making a script that will safely migrate stand-alone SVN projects into a Git repository without problems. There's a lot of support for Git to promote subdirectories up the directory structure, but not much support to push them down the directory structure.
My problem is this: - For legacy reasons we have a set of projects that were always included as externs in a larger project. - Those "extern" projects also have a separate repository for unit tests, etc. - I want to create a new C# solution to merge everything about these extern projects so I can turn them into nuget packages and all related source code in one place We have a mess that we did to ourselves. I can pre-stage what I want to do in Subversion, but it will break all the externs--which just compounds the work. While I did see some fancy git index filtering commands to push the contents of a git repository down a directory I haven't been able to get them to run correctly in Git for Windows. Let's say we have the following SVN structure: - Common - trunk - branches - tags - Common.WPF - trunk - branches - tags - Common.WinForms - trunk - branches - tags - Unit Tests - trunk - branches - tags I want to create one Git repository that looks like this: - Common - Core - WPF - WinForms - Test All while preserving the history for each of these. Converting the individual projects to a Git repository isn't a problem. It's merging them together so I can finish the job of turning these into libraries we reference rather than embed. Even if you convince me that Core, WPF, and WinForms should be in separate repositories, the Unit Tests that go against Core code need to be merged in to that project. Is there anything that would allow me to create a parent Git repository and do separate Git SVN mounts for the subfolders? That would be ideal. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
