Git-2-SVN migration?

Question

Yes, I know. Why would you want to migrate from Git to SVN?

Well I happen to be in a situation that I need to migrate a huge Git repo to Subversion! Here\'s one wor

I would recommend you to migrate that with SubGit in several easy steps.

$ svnadmin create svn.repo
$ subgit configure svn.repo
$ nano svn.repo/conf/subgit.conf #edit path to your (bare!) Git repository (you may use "git clone --bare  bare.git.repo" if you don't have it locally)
$ subgit install

That's all. While translation SubGit will try to preserve all commits (even temporary), branches, merges, ignores, dates, EOLs settings, tags and so on, as it it possible.

After translation the repositories will be in sync (each push to Git is translated to SVN revision and vice versa). To break synchronization (if you don't need it) run

$ subgit uninstall svn.repo
