I follow these steps:
http://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-and-Other-Systems-Git-as-a-Client
to move the svn repository to git. My local version of svn:
$ svn --version
svn, version 1.8.10 (r1615264)
compiled Aug 25 2014, 10:52:18 on x86_64-apple-darwin12.5.0
git version:
$ git --version
git version 2.1.0
When I clone a repository, I get an error message in the local file system format:
$ git svn clone file:///tmp/test-svn -s
Initialized empty Git repository in /private/tmp/test-svn/.git/
Couldn't open a repository: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'file:///tmp/test-svn': Unable to open an ra_local session to URL: Unable to open repository 'file:///tmp/test-svn': Expected FS format between '1' and '4'; found format '6' at /usr/local/Cellar/git/2.1.0/lib/perl5/site_perl/Git/SVN.pm line 310
In accordance with this svn release note, the FS 6 format was introduced in svn 1.8:
http://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/1.8.html#revprop-packing
Could git 2.1 perl script be not compatible with this version of svn yet? More importantly, how can I get this svn repository converted to git?
