Exporting to SVN from Jazz SCM


Kieron Brear (1461169) | asked Feb 17 '09, 12:09 p.m.
Hi,

We are migrating from SVN to Jazz SCM, and would like to keep the SVN repository refreshed with current levels of code from the new Jazz SCM repository. I know you can link work items to SVN and use that to control code changes, but it's not that I'm interested in. It's kind of the opposite to the SVN importing tool for Jazz SCM. Is there any tool for doing this?

We're using Jazz 1.0.1.

Thanks,
Kieron

No tool exists at the moment.

If you don't care about item history and all the renames/moves linked in SVN, then you can load from Jazz SCM into the SVN sandbox, re-commit, and get the new configuration into SVN? This may let you keep a history of blessed configurations in SVN, but have all the item history in Jazz SCM.

Cheers,
Jean-Michel

But is it possible to "load from Jazz SCM into the SVN sandbox"? I've
never been able to find a way to load into anywhere except the Eclipse
workspace directory. Can a random load location be specified, and if so how?

Thanks,
DSB

Yes, in 2.0 you can do this. You can load "anywhere" you like.

If you are on 1.0.X, then you'll have to start Eclipse making the SVN root dir the Eclipse workspace.
