I needed this quite a bit in the last few days, basic script but
serves my need. I think it would be useful for other beginners if in
$git/contrib/ source dir.
Just a start to a basic script. Needs more tests etc, but it's enough
to get newbies (like me) off to a reasonable start. Handles multiple
input dirs.

I do not think you need (nor used) any bash-ism in this script.
Saying #!/bin/sh here is cleaner.
# Change one or more normal repos into bare repos:

for i

You do not have to say 'in $@'; it is implied.
echo; echo --
echo Processing $i
Forgot to dq?
repo=$i
repo=`basename $i`
tmp_repo=${repo}.git
# Insert here: may be exit if any spaces in repo fqn
# Insert here: check for non-existent repo/.git dir
# Insert here: check that we are not inside the repo
# Insert here: add exit/do-nothing if fail to mv dirs etc
mv $repo/.git $tmp_repo
Forgot to dq? i.e.
mv $repo/.git $tmp_repo
The same for all the variable references in the remainder of the
script.
More importantly, mv would fail if $repo is given as a full
pathname elsewhere in the filesystem that is different from your
current directory where you create $tmp_repo.
git --git-dir=$tmp_repo config core.bare true
mv $repo ${repo}.bak
mv $tmp_repo $repo
done

The safe way would actually be stg like: rm -fr -- $repo in case $repo starts with a dash. -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe git in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

In my later email, I changed it to mv - should have highlighted there was a change. I got bitten, on a small repo thankfully, where a perms or ownership problem caused the whole repo to disappear. So mv it is :) BTW, I've subscribed for a little while now...

I think sh is preferred. Also a mv instead of a rm will require a lot of disc space if you have a big repository. -- Med vänliga hälsningar Fredrik Gustafsson tel: 0733-608274 e-post: iv...@iveqy.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe git in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
