Hello my fellow SVN refugees. We are bailing from Cloudforge as they are shutting down their SVN services. Here's how I got svn2git to work on my Mac locally. (Mojave 10.14.6). This should help with (#292) and (#283)
- We're lucky to have a standard svn layout. I'm afraid I can't help with non-standard.
- Using bash and iterm2.
- Make sure your password doesn't have any dollar signs or other special bash characters like a space or backslash. If you have a dollar sign in your password you are going to have a bad time. I don't know how to get around it, its easier to just change your password.
