• Bug#845297: [www.debian.org] Website transition from CVS to Git

    From Laura Arjona Reina@21:1/5 to All on Tue Aug 29 00:00:01 2017

    Hello
    I have redone the "git cvsimport" command to include a list of authors so the git log shows nicks+names instead of nicks. Thanks Rhonda for providing an authors file with most of the information, I have completed the newer ones.

    The repo:

    https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/webwml/webwml2git.git/

    now contains an updated converted repo.

    FTR, the commands used are the following:

    CVSROOT=":pserver:anonymous@anonscm.debian.org:/cvs/webwml"
    git cvsimport -A ./cvs_authors_20170820.txt -v -d "$CVSROOT" -C ./webwml2git.git
    -o master -R webwml > ./git_cvsimport.log

    The repo contains several branches that correspond to the branches that were present in the CVS repo: Debian, new_download, temp, webwml, plus the "githashes", "po4a" and "untranslatable" branches to track new work.

    I'll try to keep this repo updated more or less daily.

    Cheers
