That sort of worked. In the admin app, users now appear lowercase, but in file history and when running vss2svn, the usernames still come out as uppercase. Would you accept a patch for a --lowercase-usernames flag that automatically converts all usernames? Reasons: 1) unix-style usernames are usually lowercase, and the same goes for subversion. 2) I know it's only a one-line change in vss2svn script, but some (including me) don't have a perl environment with all dependencies set up. _______________________________________________ vss2svn-users mailing list Project homepage: http://www.pumacode.org/projects/vss2svn/ Subscribe/Unsubscribe/Admin: http://lists.pumacode.org/mailman/listinfo/vss2svn-users-lists.pumacode.org Mailing list web interface (with searchable archives): http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.subversion.vss2svn.user
