Re: [Inkscape-devel] Gitlab Migration (for reals this time)

5 Jun 2017

      At the lowest level we're using git's fast-export format that is used by
Bazaar. So it's not really a "live" tool as much as we're dumping the
repository into a well known format and then reimporting it into Git.
The OpenStack built a wrapper for that in their lp2gh[1] tools, but you
can split out just the Git migration portion and we don't have to go to
GitHub.

Hi,
just wondering what bzr->git-tool you use. I remember I read this to get
the source:
https://inkscape.org/en/develop/using-git/
"git-bzr-ng" did not work well for me, instead I found:
https://github.com/mnauw/git-remote-bzr
which does a better job.

Just as a reminder for anyone a bit rusty on git, we have a cheat sheet
page with bzr>git equivalents:
http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Working_with_Git

If anyone knows of a really good tutorial (particularly for people who
already know bzr), definitely add it there.

Howdy folks,
(sorry about the accidental first send)
As we've discussed more that once we're looking to move a Bazaar
repositories on Launchpad over to Git repositories on GitLab. We're now
closing in on the time for that migration. We've discussed a schedule in
the board meeting this afternoon and I wanted to make sure everyone is
aware of the plan. We're expecting 24-hours of "downtime" as part of this.
==== Step 1 ====
Wed, 7 Jun evening US time
We're going to make the Bazaar repositories owned by the project owned by the board and then start migrating them to Git. This will hopefully mean that accidental commits won't happen. The migration to Git will take a few hours, giving it over night to complete (allow for some network hiccups).
==== Step 2 ====
Wed, 8 Jun morning US time
Push the Git repo and branches to GitLab, this should take a little while, but will hopefully be done by the afternoon. We should be generally good to go after that, but will verify a couple of downloads.
==== Step 3 ====
Party!
I'll send an e-mail to the mailing lists for each phase as we go through them with a status update. If you have an open branch on LP, it should be migrated. Please make sure to push before Wed. night the 7th. It would be even better if they could be merged but that shouldn't be required. You should be able to pick up your branch from Gitlab on the other side.
