I have had a hell of a time getting the exported cvs into gitorious. cvs to git was fine.
Thanks for explaining the Git /Gitorious difference. I did understand that Gitorious is a GUI to Git , but you make it even more clear now. I am a newbie to GIT. The problem here was that I was tasked with exporting from WINCVS -> Git -> Gitorious on a server that was built by someone else, and is used for production purposes. I actually had to migrate the NEW git repo onto the same server where gitorious was installed, then add the user to the collaborators list in the new project and repository in order for this to work git remote add origin [email protected]:TEST01/REPOTEST01.git git push origin master It would not work from any other remote system where the local repository was so I think there is permission issue. Now that Git repo is hosted by gitorious are there any other commands I need to issue to make it clone able by others? I am going to probably build a new Gitorious server so do you know of a good install tutorial you can point me to for installing on Ubuntu 11.04 Thanks Ake On Wednesday, July 18, 2012 12:21:49 PM UTC-4, Kevin Cox wrote: > > > On Jul 18, 2012 11:56 AM, "Ake G" <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > Current working version of git version 1.6.1 on Ubuntu 11.04 > > > > Is there any scripts that do this easily? > > > > I have exported my repos from CVS -> git following documentation at > http://cvs2svn.tigris.org/cvs2git.html under the 'Usage' Heading. > > > > I have also used followed > http://www.pedro.kiefer.com.br/2011/02/from-cvs-to-git-to-gitorious. > > > > running the ruby script as root on the server says it is "ok!" when > complete but nothing is placed into my gitorious repository under my > Project that was created manually in Gitorious as mentioned in Pedro's > website. > > > > I executed the following command at the Ubuntu command line as root > > > > sudo env RAILS_ENV=production ./MigrateGitToGitorious.rb Project_Folder > > > > FYI the ruby script in this command line contains the exact contents of > the script @ > http://www.pedro.kiefer.com.br/2011/02/from-cvs-to-git-to-gitorious > > > > Is there any easy way to get git repos into gitorious > > > > Please advise/help > > I don't think you fully understand what got and Gitorious are.
