| Issue 32: | Mercurial script to keep track of Pinax and external dependencies | |
| 1 person starred this issue and may be notified of changes. | Back to list |
The hgsvn tool can be used to clone the Subversion repository into a Mercurial one. Alas, it does not keep track of the external applications. There is a simple script attached to issue 17 to do that, but it has a few limitations: it will clone all revisions of Pinax and all external apps; it must be modified to only pull in subsequent executions, after the first import; and it has no workaround for some weirdness in Google Code Subversion deployment. An expanded rewrite in Python is attached. It includes documentation, command line options, the mentioned workarounds, and extensive error checking. If run without arguments it will come straight here and get all of Pinax. :-)

Version 0.2 is new and improved, use that instead.

After the recent dir reorg (that attached the svn:external properties to the apps dir instead of the pinax one), two commands are needed: $ hgimpull -u http://django-hotclub.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/pinax pinax $ hgimpull -u http://django-hotclub.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/apps apps and then two commands to update: $ hgimpull pinax; hgimpull apps |

Another revision, 0.3, with some news. The command is now called hgsvnimpull, so that it autocompletes just by typing "hgs" and then Tab (thanks to insanekane for the name). Furthermore, it does not create symlinks anymore, but instead places all external apps in a second directory, given as second command line arg. (It's better not putting them inside the "apps" directory, because then we would nest mixed hg/svn repositories inside each other.) The needed commands are now: $ hgsvnimpull -u http://django-hotclub.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/pinax pinax $ hgsvnimpull -u http://django-hotclub.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/apps apps ext-apps and to update: $ hgsvnimpull pinax $ hgsvnimpull apps ext-apps (In both places, the first commands, the pinax ones, may be substituted with direct invocations of hgimportsvn and hgpullsvn: your choice.)

If someone wants to put together a wiki page I would be more than happy to add it. I think we can ultimately add this type of stuff to the documentation. |

hg support now should work much better now. Since we have moved away from svn:externals, any DVCS will work equally well.
Status: Done

Right, this thing's not needed anymore. It's been fun in the meanwhile, though. :-) |
