SYNOPSIS
--------
DESCRIPTION
-----------
-git-svn is a simple conduit for changesets between a single Subversion
-branch and git. It is not to be confused with gitlink:git-svnimport[1].
-They were designed with very different goals in mind.
+git-svn is a simple conduit for changesets between Subversion and git.
+It is not to be confused with gitlink:git-svnimport[1], which is
+read-only.
-git-svn is designed for an individual developer who wants a
+git-svn was originally designed for an individual developer who wants a
bidirectional flow of changesets between a single branch in Subversion
-and an arbitrary number of branches in git. git-svnimport is designed
-for read-only operation on repositories that match a particular layout
-(albeit the recommended one by SVN developers).
+and an arbitrary number of branches in git. Since its inception,
+git-svn has gained the ability to track multiple branches in a manner
+similar to git-svnimport.
-For importing svn, git-svnimport is potentially more powerful when
-operating on repositories organized under the recommended
-trunk/branch/tags structure, and should be faster, too.
-
-git-svn mostly ignores the very limited view of branching that
-Subversion has. This allows git-svn to be much easier to use,
-especially on repositories that are not organized in a manner that
-git-svnimport is designed for.
+git-svn is especially useful when it comes to tracking repositories
+not organized in the way Subversion developers recommend (trunk,
+branches, tags directories).
COMMANDS
--------
--
'init'::
- Creates an empty git repository with additional metadata
- directories for git-svn. The Subversion URL must be specified
- as a command-line argument. Optionally, the target directory
- to operate on can be specified as a second argument. Normally
- this command initializes the current directory.
-
-'fetch'::
+ Initializes an empty git repository with additional
+ metadata directories for git-svn. The Subversion URL
+ may be specified as a command-line argument, or as full
+ URL arguments to -T/-t/-b. Optionally, the target
+ directory to operate on can be specified as a second
+ argument. Normally this command initializes the current
+ directory.
+
+-T<trunk_subdir>::
+--trunk=<trunk_subdir>::
+-t<tags_subdir>::
+--tags=<tags_subdir>::
+-b<branches_subdir>::
+--branches=<branches_subdir>::
+ These are optional command-line options for init. Each of
+ these flags can point to a relative repository path
+ (--tags=project/tags') or a full url
+ (--tags=https://foo.org/project/tags)
-Fetch unfetched revisions from the Subversion URL we are
-tracking. refs/remotes/git-svn will be updated to the
-latest revision.
+--no-metadata::
+ Set the 'noMetadata' option in the [svn-remote] config.
+--use-svm-props::
+ Set the 'useSvmProps' option in the [svn-remote] config.
+--use-svnsync-props::
+ Set the 'useSvnsyncProps' option in the [svn-remote] config.
+--rewrite-root=<URL>::
+ Set the 'rewriteRoot' option in the [svn-remote] config.
+--username=<USER>::
+ For transports that SVN handles authentication for (http,
+ https, and plain svn), specify the username. For other
+ transports (eg svn+ssh://), you must include the username in
+ the URL, eg svn+ssh://foo@svn.bar.com/project
+
+--prefix=<prefix>
+ This allows one to specify a prefix which is prepended
+ to the names of remotes if trunk/branches/tags are
+ specified. The prefix does not automatically include a
+ trailing slash, so be sure you include one in the
+ argument if that is what you want. This is useful if
+ you wish to track multiple projects that share a common
+ repository.
-Note: You should never attempt to modify the remotes/git-svn
-branch outside of git-svn. Instead, create a branch from
-remotes/git-svn and work on that branch. Use the 'dcommit'
-command (see below) to write git commits back to
-remotes/git-svn.
+'fetch'::
-See '<<fetch-args,Additional Fetch Arguments>>' if you are interested in
-manually joining branches on commit.
+ Fetch unfetched revisions from the Subversion remote we are
+ tracking. The name of the [svn-remote "..."] section in the
+ .git/config file may be specified as an optional command-line
+ argument.
+
+'clone'::
+ Runs 'init' and 'fetch'. It will automatically create a
+ directory based on the basename of the URL passed to it;
+ or if a second argument is passed; it will create a directory
+ and work within that. It accepts all arguments that the
+ 'init' and 'fetch' commands accept; with the exception of
+ '--fetch-all'. After a repository is cloned, the 'fetch'
+ command will be able to update revisions without affecting
+ the working tree; and the 'rebase' command will be able
+ to update the working tree with the latest changes.
+
+'rebase'::
+ This fetches revisions from the SVN parent of the current HEAD
+ and rebases the current (uncommitted to SVN) work against it.
+
+ This works similarly to 'svn update' or 'git-pull' except that
+ it preserves linear history with 'git-rebase' instead of
+ 'git-merge' for ease of dcommit-ing with git-svn.
+
+ This accepts all options that 'git-svn fetch' and 'git-rebase'
+ accepts. However '--fetch-all' only fetches from the current
+ [svn-remote], and not all [svn-remote] definitions.
+
+ Like 'git-rebase'; this requires that the working tree be clean
+ and have no uncommitted changes.
'dcommit'::
- Commit all diffs from the current HEAD directly to the SVN
+ Commit each diff from a specified head directly to the SVN
repository, and then rebase or reset (depending on whether or
- not there is a diff between SVN and HEAD). It is recommended
- that you run git-svn fetch and rebase (not pull) your commits
- against the latest changes in the SVN repository.
- This is advantageous over 'commit' (below) because it produces
+ not there is a diff between SVN and head). This will create
+ a revision in SVN for each commit in git.
+ It is recommended that you run git-svn fetch and rebase (not
+ pull or merge) your commits against the latest changes in the
+ SVN repository.
+ An optional command-line argument may be specified as an
+ alternative to HEAD.
+ This is advantageous over 'set-tree' (below) because it produces
cleaner, more linear history.
'log'::
Any other arguments are passed directly to `git log'
-'commit'::
+'set-tree'::
You should consider using 'dcommit' instead of this command.
Commit specified commit or tree objects to SVN. This relies on
your imported fetch data being up-to-date. This makes
commit. All merging is assumed to have taken place
independently of git-svn functions.
-'rebuild'::
- Not a part of daily usage, but this is a useful command if
- you've just cloned a repository (using gitlink:git-clone[1]) that was
- tracked with git-svn. Unfortunately, git-clone does not clone
- git-svn metadata and the svn working tree that git-svn uses for
- its operations. This rebuilds the metadata so git-svn can
- resume fetch operations. A Subversion URL may be optionally
- specified at the command-line if the directory/repository you're
- tracking has moved or changed protocols.
-
'show-ignore'::
Recursively finds and lists the svn:ignore property on
directories. The output is suitable for appending to
'commit-diff'::
Commits the diff of two tree-ish arguments from the
- command-line. This command is intended for interopability with
+ command-line. This command is intended for interoperability with
git-svnimport and does not rely on being inside an git-svn
init-ed repository. This command takes three arguments, (a) the
original tree to diff against, (b) the new tree result, (c) the
repository (that has been init-ed with git-svn).
The -r<revision> option is required for this.
-'graft-branches'::
- This command attempts to detect merges/branches from already
- imported history. Techniques used currently include regexes,
- file copies, and tree-matches). This command generates (or
- modifies) the $GIT_DIR/info/grafts file. This command is
- considered experimental, and inherently flawed because
- merge-tracking in SVN is inherently flawed and inconsistent
- across different repositories.
-
-'multi-init'::
- This command supports git-svnimport-like command-line syntax for
- importing repositories that are layed out as recommended by the
- SVN folks. This is a bit more tolerant than the git-svnimport
- command-line syntax and doesn't require the user to figure out
- where the repository URL ends and where the repository path
- begins.
-
-'multi-fetch'::
- This runs fetch on all known SVN branches we're tracking. This
- will NOT discover new branches (unlike git-svnimport), so
- multi-init will need to be re-run (it's idempotent).
-

---shared::
+--shared[={false|true|umask|group|all|world|everybody}]::

-r <ARG>::
--revision <ARG>::
-Only used with the 'fetch' command.
+Used with the 'fetch' command.
-Takes any valid -r<argument> svn would accept and passes it
-directly to svn. -r<ARG1>:<ARG2> ranges and "{" DATE "}" syntax
-is also supported. This is passed directly to svn, see svn
-documentation for more details.
+This allows revision ranges for partial/cauterized history
+to be supported. $NUMBER, $NUMBER1:$NUMBER2 (numeric ranges),
+$NUMBER:HEAD, and BASE:$NUMBER are all supported.
-This can allow you to make partial mirrors when running fetch.
+This can allow you to make partial mirrors when running fetch;

-Only used with the 'dcommit', 'commit' and 'commit-diff' commands.
+Only used with the 'dcommit', 'set-tree' and 'commit-diff' commands.
Remove directories from the SVN tree if there are no files left
behind. SVN can version empty directories, and they are not
cannot version empty directories. Enabling this flag will make
the commit to SVN act like git.

'git-reset' cannot be used (see dcommit).
----------------
--
--b<refname>::
---branch <refname>::
-Used with 'fetch', 'dcommit' or 'commit'.
-
-This can be used to join arbitrary git branches to remotes/git-svn
-on new commits where the tree object is equivalent.
-
-When used with different GIT_SVN_ID values, tags and branches in
-SVN can be tracked this way, as can some merges where the heads
-end up having completely equivalent content. This can even be
-used to track branches across multiple SVN _repositories_.
-
-This option may be specified multiple times, once for each
-branch.
-
-repo-config key: svn.branch
-
-i<GIT_SVN_ID>::
--id <GIT_SVN_ID>::
-This sets GIT_SVN_ID (instead of using the environment). See the
-section on
-'<<tracking-multiple-repos,Tracking Multiple Repositories or Branches>>'
-for more information on using GIT_SVN_ID.
+This sets GIT_SVN_ID (instead of using the environment). This
+allows the user to override the default refname to fetch from
+when tracking a single URL. The 'log' and 'dcommit' commands
+no longer require this switch as an argument.
+
+-R<remote name>::
+--svn-remote <remote name>::
+ Specify the [svn-remote "<remote name>"] section to use,
+ this allows SVN multiple repositories to be tracked.
+ Default: "svn"
--follow-parent::
This is especially helpful when we're tracking a directory
that has been moved around within the repository, or if we
started tracking a branch and never tracked the trunk it was
- descended from.
-
- This relies on the SVN::* libraries to work.

---no-metadata::
- This gets rid of the git-svn-id: lines at the end of every commit.
+ descended from. This feature is enabled by default, use
+ --no-follow-parent to disable it.
- With this, you lose the ability to use the rebuild command. If
- you ever lose your .git/svn/git-svn/.rev_db file, you won't be
- able to fetch again, either. This is fine for one-shot imports.
-
- The 'git-svn log' command will not work on repositories using this,
- either.

-COMPATIBILITY OPTIONS
----------------------
+CONFIG FILE-ONLY OPTIONS
+------------------------
--
---upgrade::
-Only used with the 'rebuild' command.
-
-Run this if you used an old version of git-svn that used
-"git-svn-HEAD" instead of "remotes/git-svn" as the branch
-for tracking the remote.
-
---no-ignore-externals::
-Only used with the 'fetch' and 'rebuild' command.
-
-This command has no effect when you are using the SVN::*
-libraries with git, svn:externals are always avoided.
-
-By default, git-svn passes --ignore-externals to svn to avoid
-fetching svn:external trees into git. Pass this flag to enable
-externals tracking directly via git.
-
-Versions of svn that do not support --ignore-externals are
-automatically detected and this flag will be automatically
-enabled for them.
-
-Otherwise, do not enable this flag unless you know what you're
-doing.
-
-repo-config key: svn.noignoreexternals
-
---ignore-nodate::
-Only used with the 'fetch' command.
-
-By default git-svn will crash if it tries to import a revision
-from SVN which has '(no date)' listed as the date of the revision.
-This is repository corruption on SVN's part, plain and simple.
-But sometimes you really need those revisions anyway.
+svn.noMetadata::
+svn-remote.<name>.noMetadata::
+ This gets rid of the git-svn-id: lines at the end of every commit.
-If supplied git-svn will convert '(no date)' entries to the UNIX
-epoch (midnight on Jan. 1, 1970). Yes, that's probably very wrong.
-SVN was very wrong.
+ If you lose your .git/svn/git-svn/.rev_db file, git-svn will not
+ be able to rebuild it and you won't be able to fetch again,
+ either. This is fine for one-shot imports.
+
+ The 'git-svn log' command will not work on repositories using
+ this, either. Using this conflicts with the 'useSvmProps'
+ option for (hopefully) obvious reasons.
+
+svn.useSvmProps::
+svn-remote.<name>.useSvmProps::
+ This allows git-svn to re-map repository URLs and UUIDs from
+ mirrors created using SVN::Mirror (or svk) for metadata.
+
+ If an SVN revision has a property, "svm:headrev", it is likely
+ that the revision was created by SVN::Mirror (also used by SVK).
+ The property contains a repository UUID and a revision. We want
+ to make it look like we are mirroring the original URL, so
+ introduce a helper function that returns the original identity
+ URL and UUID, and use it when generating metadata in commit
+ messages.
+
+svn.useSvnsyncProps::
+svn-remote.<name>.useSvnsyncprops::
+ Similar to the useSvmProps option; this is for users
+ of the svnsync(1) command distributed with SVN 1.4.x and
+ later.
+
+svn-remote.<name>.rewriteRoot::
+ This allows users to create repositories from alternate
+ URLs. For example, an administrator could run git-svn on the
+ server locally (accessing via file://) but wish to distribute
+ the repository with a public http:// or svn:// URL in the
+ metadata so users of it will see the public URL.
+
+Since the noMetadata, rewriteRoot, useSvnsyncProps and useSvmProps
+options all affect the metadata generated and used by git-svn; they
+*must* be set in the configuration file before any history is imported
+and these settings should never be changed once they are set.
+
+Additionally, only one of these four options can be used per-svn-remote
+section because they affect the 'git-svn-id:' metadata line.

Basic Examples

-Tracking and contributing to a Subversion-managed project:
+Tracking and contributing to a the trunk of a Subversion-managed project:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-# Initialize a repo (like git init-db):
- git-svn init http://svn.foo.org/project/trunk
-# Fetch remote revisions:
- git-svn fetch
-# Create your own branch to hack on:
- git checkout -b my-branch remotes/git-svn
-# Do some work, and then commit your new changes to SVN, as well as
-# automatically updating your working HEAD:
+# Clone a repo (like git clone):
+ git-svn clone http://svn.foo.org/project/trunk
+# Enter the newly cloned directory:
+ cd trunk
+# You should be on master branch, double-check with git-branch
+ git branch
+# Do some work and commit locally to git:
+ git commit ...
+# Something is committed to SVN, rebase your local changes against the
+# latest changes in SVN:
+ git-svn rebase
+# Now commit your changes (that were committed previously using git) to SVN,
+# as well as automatically updating your working HEAD:
git-svn dcommit
-# Something is committed to SVN, rebase the latest into your branch:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
-REBASE VS. PULL
----------------
+Tracking and contributing to an entire Subversion-managed project

+# Reset your master to trunk (or any other branch, replacing 'trunk'
+# with the appropriate name):
+ git reset --hard remotes/trunk
+# You may only dcommit to one branch/tag/trunk at a time. The usage
+# of dcommit/rebase/show-ignore should be teh same as above.
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+REBASE VS. PULL/MERGE
+---------------------
Originally, git-svn recommended that the remotes/git-svn branch be
-pulled from. This is because the author favored 'git-svn commit B'
-to commit a single head rather than the 'git-svn commit A..B' notation
-to commit multiple commits.
+pulled or merged from. This is because the author favored
+'git-svn set-tree B' to commit a single head rather than the
+'git-svn set-tree A..B' notation to commit multiple commits.
-If you use 'git-svn commit A..B' to commit several diffs and you do not
-have the latest remotes/git-svn merged into my-branch, you should use
-'git rebase' to update your work branch instead of 'git pull'. 'pull'
-can cause non-linear history to be flattened when committing into SVN,
-which can lead to merge commits reversing previous commits in SVN.

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
-----------------
Merge tracking in Subversion is lacking and doing branched development
with Subversion is cumbersome as a result. git-svn does not do
automated merge/branch tracking by default and leaves it entirely up to
-the user on the git side.
-
-[[tracking-multiple-repos]]
-TRACKING MULTIPLE REPOSITORIES OR BRANCHES
-------------------------------------------
-Because git-svn does not care about relationships between different
-branches or directories in a Subversion repository, git-svn has a simple
-hack to allow it to track an arbitrary number of related _or_ unrelated
-SVN repositories via one git repository. Simply use the --id/-i flag or
-set the GIT_SVN_ID environment variable to a name other other than
-"git-svn" (the default) and git-svn will ignore the contents of the
-$GIT_DIR/svn/git-svn directory and instead do all of its work in
-$GIT_DIR/svn/$GIT_SVN_ID for that invocation. The interface branch will
-be remotes/$GIT_SVN_ID, instead of remotes/git-svn. Any
-remotes/$GIT_SVN_ID branch should never be modified by the user outside
-of git-svn commands.
-
-[[fetch-args]]
-ADDITIONAL FETCH ARGUMENTS
---------------------------
-This is for advanced users, most users should ignore this section.
-
-Unfetched SVN revisions may be imported as children of existing commits
-by specifying additional arguments to 'fetch'. Additional parents may
-optionally be specified in the form of sha1 hex sums at the
-command-line. Unfetched SVN revisions may also be tied to particular
-git commits with the following syntax:
-
-------------------------------------------------
- svn_revision_number=git_commit_sha1
-------------------------------------------------
-
-This allows you to tie unfetched SVN revision 375 to your current HEAD:
-
-------------------------------------------------
- git-svn fetch 375=$(git-rev-parse HEAD)
-------------------------------------------------
-
-Advanced Example: Tracking a Reorganized Repository
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-Note: this example is now obsolete if you have SVN::* libraries
-installed. Simply use --follow-parent when fetching.
-
-If you're tracking a directory that has moved, or otherwise been
-branched or tagged off of another directory in the repository and you
-care about the full history of the project, then you can read this
-section.
-
-This is how Yann Dirson tracked the trunk of the ufoai directory when
-the /trunk directory of his repository was moved to /ufoai/trunk and
-he needed to continue tracking /ufoai/trunk where /trunk left off.
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
- # This log message shows when the repository was reorganized:
- r166 | ydirson | 2006-03-02 01:36:55 +0100 (Thu, 02 Mar 2006) | 1 line
- Changed paths:
- D /trunk
- A /ufoai/trunk (from /trunk:165)

+how 'svn log' works).
BUGS
----
-If you are not using the SVN::* Perl libraries and somebody commits a
-conflicting changeset to SVN at a bad moment (right before you commit)
-causing a conflict and your commit to fail, your svn working tree
-($GIT_DIR/git-svn/tree) may be dirtied. The easiest thing to do is
-probably just to rm -rf $GIT_DIR/git-svn/tree and run 'rebuild'. You
-can avoid this problem entirely by using 'dcommit'.
-
-We ignore all SVN properties except svn:executable. Too difficult to
-map them since we rely heavily on git write-tree being _exactly_ the
-same on both the SVN and git working trees and I prefer not to clutter
-working trees with metadata files.
+We ignore all SVN properties except svn:executable. Any unhandled
+properties are logged to $GIT_DIR/svn/<refname>/unhandled.log
Renamed and copied directories are not detected by git and hence not
tracked when committing to SVN. I do not plan on adding support for
this as it's quite difficult and time-consuming to get working for all

-copied files are fully supported if they're similar enough for git to

+
+CONFIGURATION
+-------------
+
+git-svn stores [svn-remote] configuration information in the
+repository .git/config file. It is similar the core git
+[remote] sections except 'fetch' keys do not accept glob
+arguments; but they are instead handled by the 'branches'
+and 'tags' keys. Since some SVN repositories are oddly
+configured with multiple projects glob expansions such those
+listed below are allowed:
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+[svn-remote "project-a"]
+ url = http://server.org/svn
+ branches = branches/*/project-a:refs/remotes/project-a/branches/*
+ tags = tags/*/project-a:refs/remotes/project-a/tags/*
+ trunk = trunk/project-a:refs/remotes/project-a/trunk
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Keep in mind that the '*' (asterisk) wildcard of the local ref
+(left of the ':') *must* be the farthest right path component;
+however the remote wildcard may be anywhere as long as it's own
+independent path componet (surrounded by '/' or EOL). This
+type of configuration is not automatically created by 'init' and
+should be manually entered with a text-editor or using
+gitlink:git-config[1]
