Steps to migrate from SVN to GitLab

This process worked for me. I take no responsibility for any damage or loss incurred as a result of following or not following these steps or, for that matter, anything else you might do or not do.

Setup

• SVN is hosted at svn.domain.com.au.
• SVN is accessible via http (other protocols should work).
• GitLab is hosted at git.domain.com.au and:

The setup for getting docker working on OSX behind a proxy is slightly more complex than just following the instructions on the Docker website. I found the information I needed at the below 2 links, but I'm copying the information here in case for some reason those links break or go away.

For Docker 1.4.1

Missing from the official install guide at the time of writing

First, install Docker normally according to the website: https://docs.docker.com/installation/mac/

Open up your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc (depending on which shell you're using) and add the Docker environment variables by adding the following lines to the file:

wget -r -k -p http://api.rubyonrails.org/
rm rails_api.rar
rar a -r rails_api.rar api.rubyonrails.org/

        body: "This means that the server has received the request headers, and that the client should proceed to send the request body (in the case of a request for which a body needs to be sent; for example, a POST request). If the request body is large, sending it to a server when a request has already been rejected based upon inappropriate headers is inefficient. To have a server check if the request could be accepted based on the request's headers alone, a client must send Expect: 100-continue as a header in its initial request and check if a 100 Continue status code is received in response before continuing (or receive 417 Expectation Failed and not continue)."
