Is there a git-svn windows client something like TortoiseSVN?

Question

I like TortoiseSVN\'s Windows integration. Is there something like that for dealing with git-svn? I\'d even go with a less integrated GUI if it is quick enough to access. Wh

Answer 1

One may use any Git client while using the server-side Git-SVN synchronization setup. Have a look at SubGit to achieve that.

One has to install SubGit into Subversion repository:

$ subgit configure $SVN_REPOS
# Adjust $SVN_REPOS/conf/subgit.conf to specify your branches and tags
# Adjust $SVN_REPOS/conf/authors.txt to specify git & svn authors mapping
$ subgit install $SVN_REPOS
...
$ INSTALLATION SUCCESSFUL

SubGit converts Subversion repository into Git (it works in opposite direction as well) and installs SVN and Git hooks. These hooks are triggered by svn commit and git push as result all incoming modifications are instantly replicated to Git or SVN correspondingly. For more details please refer to SubGit documentation and git-svn comparison.

Starting from version 2.0 (not yet released at the moment of posting) SubGit allows to synchronized Subversion and Git repositories located on different hosts.

SubGit is a commercial tool. It is free for open-source, academic and small projects (up to 10 committers).

Full disclosure: I'm one of SubGit developers.

Answer 2

A sideways and very late answer, but maybe useful to later spectators, re why you don't want a CLI; assuming you're using XP install the Microsoft Command Prompt Here Powertoy which gives you an Explorer right-click shortcut on a folder. I use it all the time. Windows 7 has the feature out of the box, but you have to hold down some key while you right click, I think.. shift or alt or something.

Also, Tortoisegit now apparently has git-svn features, I am going to check them out..

Answer 6

The best GUI tool for for using git local and svn as a server is SmartGitHg from syntevo (works for Windows, Lunux and OS X). For OS X you cal also use SourceTree from Atlassian. Windows Version of SourceTree doesn't support SVN.
