git-svn-clone from local (and windows network drive) repos

note.md

hint from HERE

• windows7 and git for windows
• tortoisesvn 1.8 and given svn environment

start svn server using svnserve.exe

• on PowerShell run svnserve.exe -d --root <P:\\path\to\local\svn\repository\dir>
  • it makes No prompt

clone svn repo as git repo

• on your git workspace (if any) run git svn clone svn://relative/path/to/repo
  • in my case error happend several times -> cd <repo> then repeat git svn fetch until finish conversion

add remote (e.g. github repo)

• in your <repo> run git remote add origin <URL to github repo>
• in my case remote is a brank repo so I did rebase:
  • git rebase origin/master
• finally push it to remote:
  • git push origin master
