RE: RE: Perforce to Subverson Migration

Hi:

You need to pipe the output of p42svn.pl to the SVN dump file, like this

perl p42svn.pl --branch //depot/projectA=trunk/projectA --debug --user abc
--password=123 > projectA.svndmp

Also, you had --branch incorrect - following the = should be an SVN path -
use p42svn --help to see an example.

I use version 0.21 of p42svn, but I don't remember which repo rev # I got.
I did have to fix a number of problems:

1) The logic for binary files uses some forking/piping (I don't recall the
details) which doesn't run under Windows;
2) The output dump file includes trailing slashes in paths which cause the
--parent-dir option of svnadmin load to assert;

HTH,

Mike
