Hoping this message will get past the vger filters and will not continue the BK flamewar ... ] [ ... in fact it did not pass the taboo filters, I modified the $subject to pass. I feel it would be better if the list admins publicly announced when a subject is being tabooed instead of silenty doing it. Think at those reading the archives later... ] I've updated my Subversion kernel howto and did some work on the import scripts: http://www.popies.net/svn-kernel/ There are now two possibilities to convert the bkcvs repository into a SVN one: * either using the original Ben Collins script, which will map one Linus' changeset into a SVN revision (but all the changesets which occured on another branch and got merged by Linus will be packed into one single SVN revision) * or using my modified script which analyses the file deltas and tries to recreate the original changesets (based on the assumption that the log messages for every file involved in a changeset is identical). It works pretty well, if a file hasn't been modified several times on a branch. The repository creation instructions have also changed a bit, improving the time necessary to do the conversion (on my AMD 2000+ I can create the full 2.6 repository in 2 hours using the first script, 5 hours using the second script). Feedback welcomed.
