NAME

       svn-all-fast-export - tool to convert svn repositories into git

SYNOPSIS

       svn-all-fast-export [options] [Path to subversion repository]

DESCRIPTION

       svn-all-fast-export is a tool to convert your svn repositories to git.

       You will need to have a copy of your svn repository and to write some rules to specify how
       the conversion will be done, for instance, you can manage how the tags and  branches  will
       be  managed  writing  the  appropriate rules. You have examples in /usr/share/doc/svn-all-
       fast-export/examples

       Path to subversion repository is a backup copy of the subversion repository. Note that  an
       svn url will not work due to the undistributed nature of svn.

OPTIONS

       --identity-map
              Provide  map between svn username and email. You can provide a file mapping the old
              svn accounts to the authors names. This file must have a line per each svn account,
              you can use either the svn-all-fast-export native format:
              janesvnaccountname Jane Doe <jane.doe@example.com>
              or the git-svn format:
              janesvnaccountname = Jane Doe <jane.doe@example.com>

       --revisions-file
              Provide  a  file  with revisions numbers that should be processed. This file should
              have one revision number per line.

       --rules
              The rules file that determines what goes  where.  See  /usr/share/doc/svn-all-fast-
              export/examples for further details.

       --add-metadata
              If passed, each git commit will have svn commit info.

       --resume-from
              Start importing at svn revision number.

       --max-rev
              Stop importing at svn revision number.

       --dry-run
              Don't actually write anything.

       --debug-rules
              Print what rule is being used for each file.

       --commit-interval number
              If passed the cache will be flushed to git every number of commits.

       --stats
              After a run, print some statistics.

       --svn-branches
              Use the content of SVN when creating branches, Note: SVN tags are branches as well.

       -h, --help
              Show summary of options.

       -v, --version
              Show version of program.

RETURN VALUES

       This program returns 0 on success, on error something else (numbers in base 10):
       10 unrecognized option or missing argument
       11 no rules file specified

BUGS

       All  matching  rules  need  to end with a '/', else the tool will crash at some point. The
       only exception are the rules using the recurse-action.
