Summary: script for workspace move without history
Product: SCM Migration
Version: unspecified
Platform: SPARC (32bit+64bit)
OS/Version: Solaris 11/Nevada
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P4
Component: other
AssignedTo: scm-migration-dev at opensolaris.org
ReportedBy: mike.kupfer at sun.com
Some consolidations or other projects may wish to migrate from
TeamWare to Mercurial, without keeping any of the old TeamWare
history. For example, this is the plan for SFW. This is pretty
straightforward to do by hand, but it would be nice to have a script.
The basic steps are
- create the new directory and initialize it (hg init)
- copy the old source tree to the new directory
- remove any SCCS directories in the new tree
- do "hg add" at the top of the new tree
- do "hg commit"
It would be useful to check for permissions issues, probably before
doing the "hg add". Files should be 664, and directories should be
775.
The main complication is dealing with SCCS keywords, which we want to
check in unexpanded. One option would be to do a mass "sccs edit"
prior to copying the source tree. Another option would be to copy the
files one at a time, using "sccs get -k -p $file > $newpath/$file".
