This page contains notes related to GRASS code migration (planned) from CVS to SVN.
Basic
- The SVN command line interface is just like CVS, many tasks are identical- just change the program name from cvs to svn.
Gotchas
- cvs2svn is known to break binary files (images) which were not imported into the CVS with the -kb flag. Luckily Glynn fixed most of these some months ago.
- Files using keyword substitution, such as $Date$ in the description.html files, will have to have support for that enabled manually, once per file (or write a find routine with | xargs svn ...).
$ svn propset svn:keywords "Date" filename.txt $ svn commit
or
$ find . -name '*.c' | xargs svn propset svn:keywords "Date" $ find . -name '*.html' | xargs svn propset svn:keywords "Date" $ svn commit
- how to maintain timestamps of files? We want to keep the last modification date, not the date of local download
GRASS CVS repository structure
/grass-cvs | +---/CVSROOT | +---/grass | +---/grass51 | +---/grass6 | +---/grass_doc | +---/libgrass | +---/newsletter | +---/programgrass50 | +---/web
Testing SVN repository
- grass/grass should be renamed to grass/grass5
Question:
- Migrate all directories or only actively used (grass, grass6, newsletter, web)?
- Create separate repositories (grass5, grass6, grassweb, grassnewsletter, grass7) or one repository (grass-svn)?
Proposed structure

grass5
cvs2svn --use-cvs --no-default-eol \ --encoding="ASCII" \ --encoding="UTF-8" \ --encoding="ISO-8859-1" \ -s grass5svn-orig grass-cvs/grass
Question: exclude selected branches/tags (which one?)
According to undocumented these branches/tags are suggested to be excluded:
--exclude="Mike" \ --exclude="grass" \ --exclude="unlabeled-.*" \ --exclude=devices_cleanup_20000420 \ --exclude=post_compare_glynn_head_2002_11_27 \ --exclude=post_compare_glynn_release_2002_11_27 \ --exclude=post_merge_head_2002_01_22 \ --exclude=post_sync_2002_01_22 \ --exclude=pre-curses-fix \ --exclude=pre_merge_head_2002_01_22 \ --exclude=pre_merge_release_2002_01_22 \ --exclude=pre_sync_2001_10_31 \ --exclude=pre_sync_2002_01_17 \ --exclude=release_15_05_2004_grass5_3_0 \ --exclude=releasebranch_11_april_2001_5_0_0 \ --exclude=releasebranch_11_april_2001_5_0_0_DEAD \ --exclude=releasebranch_500 \ --exclude=releasebranch_5_0_0 \ --exclude=release_grass5beta11pre1_21_january_2001 \ --exclude=release_grass5beta11pre2_28_january_2001 \ --exclude=start \ --exclude=testbranch_5_0_0stable \ --exclude=grassreleasebranch_5_0_0 \
A lot of dependency problems:

Question: Exclude more tags (which)?
- I guess tags "freetypecap", "lastworking", "pre_fileinfo_change" and maybe also "pre_vdigit_changes_.*" could be also excluded... --ML
Add other switches (e.g. --encoding) ??

MIME types
According to Converting CVS to subversion:
CVSREPOS="$(pwd)/grass-cvs" PROJECTNAME=grass6
# Find all extensions. Also include filenames without extension. # The E (extension) and S (slash) trick is to get GNU sort to separate # them, although this is not really necessary. But note that at the # same time it removes the leading slash from filenames without extension. find $CVSREPOS/$PROJECTNAME -type f -name '*,v' ! -name '.cvsignore,v' | \ sed -e 's%.*\([./][^.]*\),v$%\1%' -e 's/\./E/' -e 's/\//S/' | \ sort -u | sed -e 's/^S//' -e 's/^E/./' > step1 # Compose an extended regular expression that matches any "extension" # as found by the previous step. EXT1="($(grep '^\.' step1 | xargs echo | sed -e 's/^\.//' -e 's/\+/\\+/g' -e 's/ \./|/g'))"
# Find all mime-types and related extensions that really exist. egrep -i '^alnum:[^[:space:]]*space:+([^[:space:]]+ )*'"$EXT1"'($| )' /etc/mime.types > step2
# Extract the list of extensions from the previous step, # filtering out the extensions that we don't have. for ext in $(sed -re 's/^[^[:space:]]*space:+//' step2); do echo $ext; done | \ egrep -i '^'"$EXT1"'$' | sort -u > step3 # Compose an extended regular expression from the previous step. EXT2="($(cat step3 | xargs echo | sed -e 's/ /|/g'))" # Find all "extensions" that weren't really extensions # (or for which we don't know a MIME type). grep '^\.' step1 | egrep -iv '^\.'"$EXT2"'$' > step4 # And turn it into an extended regular expression. EXT3="($(sed -e 's/\./\\\\./' step4 | xargs echo | sed -e 's/ /|/g'))" # Create a list of files for which no MIME type is known. find $CVSREPOS/$PROJECTNAME -type f -name '*,v' ! -name '.cvsignore,v' | \ sed -e 's%.*/\([^/]*\),v$%\1%' | egrep -i "$EXT3"'$' | sort -u > step5
