Trying to convert my local SVN repo to Git using svn2git as suggested by github.
I ran this code:
svn2git http://localhost/repo-name
And I got this error:
RA layer request failed: OPTIONS of 'http://localhost/repo-name': 200 OK (http://localhost) at /usr/bin/git-svn line 1923
[svn-remote "svn"] unknown
Google and a fairly thorough search in SO yielded no results.
Can anyone shed some light here?
If the repository is local and has trunk/branches/tags layout, you may use SubGit:
The resulting repository will be at path/to/svn/repository/.git
It has another translation engine than svn2git (svn2git uses “git-svn” in it), so it shouldn’t have this problem.
If your repository has no trunk/branches/tags layout, you may use SmartGit for conversion that also uses another translation engine, not git-svn.
