util: stop overwriting sha1, overwrite _fastsha1 instead
Some modules (like revlog) would import util.sha1 as _sha1. This
defeats the purpose of having util.sha1 overwrite itself with a faster
version -- revlog would end up always calling the slow version. By
always delegating to util._fastsha1 we avoid this at the cost of an
extra (but unconditional) indirection.
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.
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 explicitely 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.
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 reorganisation 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 is a legacy option and may be removed in future.
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 overriden with following options. Set them to paths
relative to the source URL, or leave them blank to disable
autodetection.
--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
--datesort try to sort changesets by date
