hg convert [OPTION]... SOURCE [DEST [REVMAP]] convert a foreign SCM repository to a Mercurial one. Accepted source formats [identifiers]: - Mercurial [hg] - CVS [cvs] - Darcs [darcs] - git [git] - Subversion [svn] - Monotone [mtn] - GNU Arch [gnuarch] - Bazaar [bzr] - Perforce [p4] Accepted destination formats [identifiers]: - Mercurial [hg] - Subversion [svn] (history on branches is not preserved) If no revision is given, all revisions will be converted. Otherwise, convert will only import up to the named revision (given in a format understood by the source). If no destination directory name is specified, it defaults to the basename of the source with '-hg' appended. If the destination repository doesn't exist, it will be created. By default, all sources except Mercurial will use --branchsort. Mercurial uses --sourcesort to preserve original revision numbers order. Sort modes have the following effects: --branchsort convert from parent to child revision when possible, which means branches are usually converted one after the other. It generates more compact repositories. --datesort sort revisions by date. Converted repositories have good- looking changelogs but are often an order of magnitude larger than the same ones generated by --branchsort. --sourcesort try to preserve source revisions order, only supported by Mercurial sources. If <REVMAP> isn't given, it will be put in a default location (<dest>/.hg/shamap by default). The <REVMAP> is a simple text file that maps each source commit ID to the destination ID for that revision, like so: <source ID> <destination ID> If the file doesn't exist, it's automatically created. It's updated on each commit copied, so convert-repo can be interrupted and can be run repeatedly to copy new commits. The [username mapping] file is a simple text file that maps each source commit author to a destination commit author. It is handy for source SCMs that use unix logins to identify authors (eg: CVS). One line per author mapping and the line format is: srcauthor=whatever string you want The filemap is a file that allows filtering and remapping of files and directories. Comment lines start with '#'. Each line can contain one of the following directives: include path/to/file exclude path/to/file rename from/file to/file The 'include' directive causes a file, or all files under a directory, to be included in the destination repository, and the exclusion of all other files and directories not explicitly included. The 'exclude' directive causes files or directories to be omitted. The 'rename' directive renames a file or directory. To rename from a subdirectory into the root of the repository, use '.' as the path to rename to. The splicemap is a file that allows insertion of synthetic history, letting you specify the parents of a revision. This is useful if you want to e.g. give a Subversion merge two parents, or graft two disconnected series of history together. Each entry contains a key, followed by a space, followed by one or two comma-separated values. The key is the revision ID in the source revision control system whose parents should be modified (same format as a key in .hg/shamap). The values are the revision IDs (in either the source or destination revision control system) that should be used as the new parents for that node. The branchmap is a file that allows you to rename a branch when it is being brought in from whatever external repository. When used in conjunction with a splicemap, it allows for a powerful combination to help fix even the most badly mismanaged repositories and turn them into nicely structured Mercurial repositories. The branchmap contains lines of the form "original_branch_name new_branch_name". "original_branch_name" is the name of the branch in the source repository, and "new_branch_name" is the name of the branch is the destination repository. This can be used to (for instance) move code in one repository from "default" to a named branch. Mercurial Source ---------------- --config convert.hg.ignoreerrors=False (boolean) ignore integrity errors when reading. Use it to fix Mercurial repositories with missing revlogs, by converting from and to Mercurial. --config convert.hg.saverev=False (boolean) store original revision ID in changeset (forces target IDs to change) --config convert.hg.startrev=0 (hg revision identifier) convert start revision and its descendants CVS Source ---------- CVS source will use a sandbox (i.e. a checked-out copy) from CVS to indicate the starting point of what will be converted. Direct access to the repository files is not needed, unless of course the repository is :local:. The conversion uses the top level directory in the sandbox to find the CVS repository, and then uses CVS rlog commands to find files to convert. This means that unless a filemap is given, all files under the starting directory will be converted, and that any directory reorganization in the CVS sandbox is ignored. Because CVS does not have changesets, it is necessary to collect individual commits to CVS and merge them into changesets. CVS source uses its internal changeset merging code by default but can be configured to call the external 'cvsps' program by setting: --config convert.cvsps='cvsps -A -u --cvs-direct -q' This option is deprecated and will be removed in Mercurial 1.4. The options shown are the defaults. Internal cvsps is selected by setting --config convert.cvsps=builtin and has a few more configurable options: --config convert.cvsps.cache=True (boolean) Set to False to disable remote log caching, for testing and debugging purposes. --config convert.cvsps.fuzz=60 (integer) Specify the maximum time (in seconds) that is allowed between commits with identical user and log message in a single changeset. When very large files were checked in as part of a changeset then the default may not be long enough. --config convert.cvsps.mergeto='{{mergetobranch ([-\w]+)}}' Specify a regular expression to which commit log messages are matched. If a match occurs, then the conversion process will insert a dummy revision merging the branch on which this log message occurs to the branch indicated in the regex. --config convert.cvsps.mergefrom='{{mergefrombranch ([-\w]+)}}' Specify a regular expression to which commit log messages are matched. If a match occurs, then the conversion process will add the most recent revision on the branch indicated in the regex as the second parent of the changeset. The hgext/convert/cvsps wrapper script allows the builtin changeset merging code to be run without doing a conversion. Its parameters and output are similar to that of cvsps 2.1. Subversion Source ----------------- Subversion source detects classical trunk/branches/tags layouts. By default, the supplied "svn://repo/path/" source URL is converted as a single branch. If "svn://repo/path/trunk" exists it replaces the default branch. If "svn://repo/path/branches" exists, its subdirectories are listed as possible branches. If "svn://repo/path/tags" exists, it is looked for tags referencing converted branches. Default "trunk", "branches" and "tags" values can be overridden with following options. Set them to paths relative to the source URL, or leave them blank to disable auto detection. --config convert.svn.branches=branches (directory name) specify the directory containing branches --config convert.svn.tags=tags (directory name) specify the directory containing tags --config convert.svn.trunk=trunk (directory name) specify the name of the trunk branch Source history can be retrieved starting at a specific revision, instead of being integrally converted. Only single branch conversions are supported. --config convert.svn.startrev=0 (svn revision number) specify start Subversion revision. Perforce Source --------------- The Perforce (P4) importer can be given a p4 depot path or a client specification as source. It will convert all files in the source to a flat Mercurial repository, ignoring labels, branches and integrations. Note that when a depot path is given you then usually should specify a target directory, because otherwise the target may be named ...-hg. It is possible to limit the amount of source history to be converted by specifying an initial Perforce revision. --config convert.p4.startrev=0 (perforce changelist number) specify initial Perforce revision. Mercurial Destination --------------------- --config convert.hg.clonebranches=False (boolean) dispatch source branches in separate clones. --config convert.hg.tagsbranch=default (branch name) tag revisions branch name --config convert.hg.usebranchnames=True (boolean) preserve branch names options: -A --authors username mapping filename -d --dest-type destination repository type --filemap remap file names using contents of file -r --rev import up to target revision REV -s --source-type source repository type --splicemap splice synthesized history into place --branchmap change branch names while converting --branchsort try to sort changesets by branches --datesort try to sort changesets by date --sourcesort preserve source changesets order use "hg -v help convert" to show global options adding a assuming destination a-hg initializing destination a-hg repository scanning source... sorting... converting... 4 a 3 b 2 c 1 d 0 e pulling from ../a searching for changes no changes found % should fail initializing destination bogusfile repository abort: cannot create new bundle repository % should fail abort: Permission denied: bogusdir % should succeed initializing destination bogusdir repository scanning source... sorting... converting... 4 a 3 b 2 c 1 d 0 e % test pre and post conversion actions run hg source pre-conversion action run hg sink pre-conversion action run hg sink post-conversion action run hg source post-conversion action % converting empty dir should fail nicely assuming destination emptydir-hg initializing destination emptydir-hg repository emptydir does not look like a CVS checkout emptydir does not look like a Git repo emptydir does not look like a Subversion repo emptydir is not a local Mercurial repo emptydir does not look like a darcs repo emptydir does not look like a monotone repo emptydir does not look like a GNU Arch repo emptydir does not look like a Bazaar repo cannot find required "p4" tool abort: emptydir: missing or unsupported repository
