I used Tortoise and the command line but this SSH stuff looks too complex... and support intensive

Anyway, SF is up let's use that repository again, I am setting up an automatic mirror for peace of mind.

I wish to setup a git mirror too but I lack knowledge. Is it possible to update a git repository from remote?

In theory a simple 'howto' should resolve most of the support issues once we've got things going; but I do agree that the SSH stuff is an unnecessary complication for most users.

I usually have a reasonably up to date clone of the repository as a further backup

Me too, I wanted something readily accessible by public, we have been stuck for a week now.

Certainly is.
And in Eclipse using Egit makes things relatively straightforward for a variety of operations.

Certainly is.
In Eclipse using Egit makes things relatively straightforward if you don't care to use the GIT CLI or UI.

I need to update a git repository from the svn repository using a cron job on the svn server. It has to be an automatic thing running in background.

SF is back apparently, I am proceeding with the subversion mirror setup.

This has been used in the past... http://svn2github.com/info/
Maybe a discussion with the developer will yield some options?

[Giovanni]

That would be perfect but it does not work for large repositories (read the blog post), would be possible to create a script that does exactly that? I could host it on the same SVN server. Apparently it is just matter of calling the appropriate git commands.

Shouldn't be so complicated.

After first init of this you may need a job which will rebase all the branches.
Something like this:

Code: Select all

git svn fetch
git checkout branch1
git svn rebase
git checkout branch2
git svn rebase --local
git checkout branch3
git svn rebase --local
git push --all origin
