Hi Chris,
actually, there's now a simpler way to migrate than backing up and
restoring in two steps. It's very new and not in the last official
release (2.4.12), but we've added a bin/migrate script that makes it
possible to clone the state of one gitorious instance into another.
You'll find it if you clone/pull HEAD from the mainline repo. It can
simply be copied or cherry-picked directly into an old installation, as
it's explicitly built not to have any dependencies to recent Gitorious
versions.
We're still putting it through its paces and haven't
announced/documented it officially yet but we are using it internally at
Gitorious AS and there should be enough here and in the script itself to
get you started. Feel free to ask if you get stuck!
regards,
Thomas

Hello All,
We are currently on Gitorious 2.1.0 and would like to migrate to 2.4.9
(or whatever is latest when we get there).
The plan I have is below but I had some quesitons for specific steps
if you guys have any insight:
1. Install 2.4.9 on a new server as a clean install
2. Backup existing 2.1.0 (How?)
3. Restore on new 2.4.9 server
Is this possible? I haven't found clear instructions on how to backup
a 2.1.0 instance and not even sure I can go all the way to 2.4.9.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks
-Chris Holden
