SVN Repo setup

Steps :

1. Create a new branch in svn repo - phani_branch

svn copy --username swarupdonepudi https://svn.riouxsvn.com/swarup-repo/branches/branch1 https://svn.riouxsvn.com/swarup-repo/branches/phani_branch -m "Creating a branch for final test"

2. Checkout phani_branch

svn co --username swarupdonepudi https://svn.riouxsvn.com/swarup-repo/branches/phani_branch

3. Create a new file in phani_branch - file1_for_phani_branch.txt

touch file1_for_phani_branch.txt

4. Add a line "first line in file for phani_branch" to file1_for_phani_branch.txt

echo "first line in file for phani_branch" > file1_for_phani_branch.txt

5. Add this new file to remote svn repo

svn add file1_for_phani_branch.txt

6. Commit this with mesage "First commit for phani_branch"

svn commit -m "First commit for phani_branch"

7. Create a new file in phani_branch - file2_for_phani_branch.txt

touch file2_for_phani_branch.txt

8. Add another line "first line in file2 for phani_branch" to file2_for_phani_branch.txt

echo "first line in file2 for phani_branch" > file2_for_phani_branch.txt

9. Commit this with mesage "Added another file for phani_branch"

svn commit -m "Added another file for phani_branch"

10. Add another line "first line in file for phani_branch" to file1_for_phani_branch.txt

echo "first line in file for phani_branch" >> file1_for_phani_branch.txt

11. Commit this with mesage "Added another file1 for phani_branch"

svn commit -m "Added another file1 for phani_branch"

Converting SVN repo to Git and pushing it to Github

On another machine perform conversion preferably linux box

svn2git --username swarupdonepudi https://svn.riouxsvn.com/swarup-repo --trunk branches/phani_branch --nobranches --no-minimize-url --notags

• Delete any non master branches

git branch -D trunc@2

• Create a new git repo on github : svn_repo2

https://github.com/swarupdonepudi/svn_repo2.git

• Add the remote details to the local git repo after converting it from svn

git remote add origin https://github.com/swarupdonepudi/svn_repo2.git

git push --set-upstream origin master

git push
