For the last 6 months or so I’ve been using a 2-way Git mirror of our main Perforce repository at work to evaluate it for our workflow. I have to say I’ve fallen in love with using it but it has had one fatal flaw for me so far: it’s Windows support is terrible.
Generally this is not an issue for me but right now it is. I need to do some work on some locally committed work in my Git repo and I cannot get to it from the machine I need to work on as there are some unsolvable issues with the Git distro on this box.
Anyhow, what I want to do if I can is to run a second mirror: this time piggy-backing off of my Git repository but serving via Mercurial or Bazar. I’ve found a few tools that look promising and some references in blog comments saying that people have done this but nothing complete.
So can anyone tell me if there is a simple way to maintain a 2-way mirror to a Git repository using another DVCS that will work on Windows without any trouble?
Thanks in advance for your troubles…
Jamie
A new option has popped up on the scene from the folks over at GitHub: git-hg. Now there’s a way to do a two-way sync between Git and Mercurial.
