svn2git

This is how you can "transfer" a SVN repository to a Git one with keeping the whole log (hostory):

https://github.com/nirvdrum/svn2git

Installation

$ sudo apt-get install git-core git-svn ruby rubygems
$ sudo gem install svn2git

Usage

1 - Check your repo: 

svn log -v -l10 https://svn.epfl.ch/svn/REPO

svn status https://svn.epfl.ch/svn/REPO

2 - Create a svn_authors_file.txt with

root = nborboen <nicolas.borboen@epfl.ch>
nborboen = nborboen <nicolas.borboen@epfl.ch>

3 - Use the command:

Just the trunk:

git svn clone --authors-file=/home/nborboen/svn_authors_file.txt https://svn.epfl.ch/svn/REPO/trunk REPO

With all tags, branches and trunk:

git svn clone 'https://svn.epfl.ch/svn/REPO/' --no-metadata -A svn_authors_file.txt -t tags -b branches -T trunk REPO

4 - Then check

cd REPO
git log
git remote add origin https://nborboen@git.epfl.ch/repo/REPO.git
git push -u origin master

and you are done.

 

Additionaly you can check svn2git

svn2git -v 'https://svn.epfl.ch/svn/REPO/DIR/DIR/ --notrunk --nobranches --notags --username=nbo --authors /home/nborboen/svn_authors_file.txt --metadata --no-minimize-url
git branch -D git-svn
git push origin --delete git-svn
git push --all
 
To archive a repo
svn co https://svn.epfl.ch/svn/REPO/trunk REPO_svn
svn export https://svn.epfl.ch/svn/REPO/trunk REPO_svn_export
tar -jcvf REPO.tar.bz2 REPO_svn_export/
cd REPO_svn
svn del *
svn ci . -m "moved to git.epfl.ch"
cd ..
mv REPO.tar.bz2 REPO_svn
cd REPO_svn
vim README.txt
