Re: [Zope-dev] Status of github migration
Hi everybody, I made what necessary for z3c.soap to comply with the zope project policy (used zope.repositorypolicy) and incindentally to work with Zope 2.13.19, what is the process now so it is migrated to Github?

Following your link it works for me too.

I try to see if I can recreate single repos from it by moving stuff around and modifying the history. git svn clone is dog slow with svn.zope.org.

I've been overly busy with these last couple of monks with job change/country relocation/new year, so I couldn't review those migrations before. I took a quick look at the Zope migration now and I think it's excellent. The only thing I'd add is that I'd also migrate branches 2.12 and 2.13 branches since they're all active, even if just for bug/security fixes. Having those branches means that back/forward-porting fixes is easier. Although we could always recreate the branches based on the tags, which were also nicely migrated. I think you mentioned this before, but I couldn't find it in a quick archive search, but which script did you use for those migrations? Thanks for all the work!

I did not choose to include or exclude any branch. The test migration uses the
package used to migrate most Plone packages from SVN to GitHub, which uses
svn2git underneath. If there's whole branches missing the migration has
obviously failed.
If you want to help you could try a migration with the attached Python script
that Jim wrote as a result of finding bugs in svn2git. I can provide you with a
suitable authors mapping file.

I had a bunch of problems with ZODB and the ruby svn2git. If you used a ruby tool, then you didn't use the same one as the Plone migrations. Unfortunately there's at least two different tools named svn2git. The one used by the Plone migrations is from the KDE community and written in Qt. Some of the more useful info is at http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/MoveToGit/UsingSvn2Git That tool doesn't really use git-svn. Instead it scan through all SVN revisions, looks at the changed paths and matches those against a ruleset. So you can tell it that both /foo/bar/trunk and /bar/trunk contain code that goes into the final bar.git repo. Since you can manually influence these rules, this tool tends to work better on projects which have moved their location in SVN a lot. It also does a single scan through the entire SVN repo and is able to generate many resulting git projects at once. Which made it perfect for a mass-migration. git-svn or tools based on it, tend to work well on small projects that always stayed in the same place, with the same structure.

The test migration uses the package used to migrate most Plone packages from SVN to GitHub, which uses svn2git underneath. If there's whole branches missing the migration has obviously failed. I had a bunch of problems with ZODB and the ruby svn2git. If you used a ruby tool, then you didn't use the same one as the Plone migrations. Unfortunately there's at least two different tools named svn2git. The one used by the Plone migrations is from the KDE community and written in Qt. Some of the more useful info is at http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/MoveToGit/UsingSvn2Git That tool doesn't really use git-svn. Instead it scan through all SVN revisions, looks at the changed paths and matches those against a ruleset. So you can tell it that both /foo/bar/trunk and /bar/trunk contain code that goes into the final bar.git repo. Since you can manually influence these rules, this tool tends to work better on projects which have moved their location in SVN a lot. It also does a single scan through the entire SVN repo and is able to generate many resulting git projects at once. Which made it perfect for a mass-migration. git-svn or tools based on it, tend to work well on small projects that always stayed in the same place, with the same structure. That's interesting. Not sure what I think about it (now that I have something mostly working and don't want to figure out something else :), but definitely worth thinking about. Thanks.

It uses a GitHub API that has been removed months ago. I migrated the Zope package based on that software and apparently there are issues with missing branches, too. jens ___ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )

Softwward which doesn't have a champion willing to do the work should stay behind on SVN. The community as a whole cares about having them all migrated to github. I'm sure this will happen the next time there's a sprint, just like lots of them got migrated (and subsequently deleted) at the zope4 sprint in San Francisco a few years back. We need man-hours, sure, but not champions. Being blocked on working on the code because you're the first one to care about a package and subsequently have to learn how to do the migration is a crazy way of doing things.
