| hg-to-git.py is able to convert a Mercurial repository into a git one, |
| and preserves the branches in the process (unlike tailor) |
| |
| hg-to-git.py can probably be greatly improved (it's a rather crude |
| combination of shell and python) but it does already work quite well for |
| me. Features: |
| - supports incremental conversion |
| (for keeping a git repo in sync with a hg one) |
| - supports hg branches |
| - converts hg tags |
| |
| Note that the git repository will be created 'in place' (at the same |
| location as the source hg repo). You will have to manually remove the |
| '.hg' directory after the conversion. |
| |
| Also note that the incremental conversion uses 'simple' hg changesets |
| identifiers (ordinals, as opposed to SHA-1 ids), and since these ids |
| are not stable across different repositories the hg-to-git.py state file |
| is forever tied to one hg repository. |
