[LLVMdev] committing with the git mirror

[NAKAMURA Takumi]

Good evening, Jay!

...Instructions, ...

1. git clone http://llvm.org/git/XXX.git (assume it "origin")

2. Create git authors file (assume /path/to/file/of/authors) with single line.

foad = Jay Foad <jay.foad at gmail.com>

Oh yeah, you should define your name and mailto same as described in
llvm.org/git with case-sensitive.

3. Edit .git/config manually :p

[svn]
        authorsFile = /path/to/file/of/authors
[svn-remote "svn"]
        url = https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/XXX/trunk
        fetch = :refs/remotes/origin/master

4. git svn fetch

  You would not perform "git-svn rebase" any more.

They above are all setup to live with git-svn.


5. Enjoy your life with git-pull and git-fetch.
  (please not forget to track origin/master)


When you have commits, ....

6. git-checkout and git-pull --rebase on master.

7. cherry-pick your commits to master.

8. (Optional) Confirm with dry-run; git svn dcommit -n

9. Are you ready? "git svn dcommit"!


Thanks to git guys, esp. Tobi!
