CONFIGURATION SUCCESSFUL To complete SubGit installation do the following: 1) Adjust Subversion to Git branches mapping if necessary: /home/user/repo.git/subgit/config 2) Define at least one Subversion credentials in default SubGit passwd file at: /home/user/repo.git/subgit/passwd OR configure SSH or SSL credentials in the [auth] section of: /home/user/repo.git/subgit/config 3) Optionally, add custom authors mapping to the authors.txt file(s) at: /home/user/repo.git/subgit/authors.txt 4) Run SubGit 'install' command: subgit install ./repo.gitSpecify authors mapping
Configure authors mapping in default authors mapping file:
No Format GIT_REPO/subgit/authors.txt
Or change
core.authorsoption so that it points to the global authors mapping file.Find more details about authors mapping in the Authors mapping article.
Specify a username and password that are used by SubGit to access the SCN repository. Edit passwd file:
No Format GIT_REPO/subgit/passwd
By default, there's only subgit secret credential pair. Replace it with a username and its corresponding password.
Info title SVN authentication There are several methods to configure authentication to access SVN server, but we use a plain text password file here to simplify the guide. See more authentication methods in SVN Authentication if this method does not fit your needs.
- Create empty Git repository:
Establish a two-way mirror between SVN and Gerrit by the following command:
No Format $ subgit install GIT_REPO
where
GIT_REPO– a path to the Git repository.Expand title See subgit import example… Code Block language text theme FadeToGrey title subgit import $ subgit-3.2.4/bin/subgit install ./project.git SubGit version 3.2.4 ('Bobique') build #3670 Translating Subversion revisions to Git commits... Subversion revisions translated: 10248. Total time: 2 hours 15 minutes 24 seconds. INSTALLATION SUCCESSFULWhen the command completed, the mirror is established and data from SVN is translated to Gerrit, so you can clone your new Git repository and start to work with it:
No Format $ git clone GERRIT_URL WORK_TREE
where
GERRIT_URL –the new Gerrit project URL.WORK_TREE– a path to your working copy.
Expand title See git clone example… Code Block language text theme FadeToGrey title git clone example $ git clone http://gerrit.example.com/user/project.git /home/user/project.git Cloning into '/home/user//project.git'... Password for 'http://gerrit.example.com': remote: Counting objects: 99, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (39/39), done. remote: Total 99 (delta 50), reused 99 (delta 50) Unpacking objects: 100% (99/99), done.
Warning title Empty working tree case If Git warns you that you are cloning an empty repository and you don't see your files in the working tree, most probably automatic branches and tags mapping didn't work correctly. In this case, mapping has to be set manually, see details on mapping in Branches and tags mapping.
Try and buy.
Info title Trial period Note: the trial period for SubGit mirror is 30 days, after that period you should buy a license key at https://subgit.com/pricing.
Once you receive an email with a license key, upload this license key to your server and run the following command:
No Format $ sudo subgit register --key subgit.key GIT_REPO
where
GIT_REPO– a path to your newly created Git repository.Expand title Subgit register example… Code Block language text theme FadeToGrey title subgit register $ sudo subgit register --key subgit.key /gerrit/site/project.git SubGit version 3.2.4 ('Bobique') build #3670 Registration information: Registered for: Example company Purchase ID: OS-111111111111111 Expiration date: April 23, 2028 You may use this key to register 9 more repositories (out of 10).
