Subversion migration checklist

Due to an old SVN version, poor performance and outages, we migrated our Subversion repository from java.net to SourceForge.

TODO

  • set up backups of new repo

  • block commits at old (java.net) repo

DONE

  • request dump of java.net mifos repository from Eric Renaud (CollabNet)

    • used svnsync to pull down full mirror instead. Currently on birch at ~adamm/svn_mirror/mifos

      • svnsync init file://$HOME/svn_mirror/mifos https://mifos.dev.java.net/svn/mifos

      • create mostly empty (but executable) $HOME/svn_mirror/mifos/hooks/pre-revprop-change script

      • svnsync sync file://$HOME/svn_mirror/mifos

  • upload dump from java net on sourceforge

  • disable commit permissions on java.net to prevent commits to the old repository

  • resolve http://sf.net/apps/trac/sourceforge/ticket/5746

  • point Hudson to the new subversion repo

  • have active committers sign up on sourceforge and get commit rights

    • John Woodlock, Keith Woodlock

    • Keith Randall

    • Udai Gupta

    • Sungard: Chandan Rao,

    • Keith Pierce

    • Adam Monsen, Adam Feuer, Adam Monsen, Van Mittal-Henkle, Jeff Brewster, Ryan Whitney

    • Johan Hilding

    • Kimloan Ho

    • Pootle auto-commit user

  • instruct anyone with a checkout to svn switch --relocate to the new repo

  • migrate merge tracking information

    • keep using svnmerge for now... we'll likely migrate to Mercurial instead of using built-in SVN merging

  • point mifos.org and other links to java.net svn to sourceforge svn

  • create "mifospootle" user on sourceforge

  • enable commit emails using a hook script

  • if using a new commit email alias, update mifoscommits google group and mifos.scm on gmane

  • connect with http://cia.vc

  • update fisheye url to http://fisheye3.atlassian.com/browse/mifos
