$> git svn dcommit --dry-run $> git svn dcommit $> git svn rebase
+With some caveats Daniel Cousineau // follow me : @dcousineau
or http://dcousineau.com anything that has been dcommit’d is set in stone! do. not. touch. git branches well svn... not so much
+Local Branching Daniel Cousineau // follow me : @dcousineau or

+Why? Daniel Cousineau // follow me : @dcousineau or http://dcousineau.com
SVN is TERRIBLE at merges git-svn will do it if you don’t and when it fails, it does so spectacularly you’ll just litter your commit history
+tracking svn branches Daniel Cousineau // follow me : @dcousineau
or http://dcousineau.com $> git checkout -t remotes/branchname
+creating remote branches Daniel Cousineau // follow me : @dcousineau
or http://dcousineau.com $> git svn branch -m “Creating new branch” branchname $> git checkout -t remotes/branchname
+personal opinion Daniel Cousineau // follow me : @dcousineau or
http://dcousineau.com except for release tagging and a develop branch don’t bother with remote branching just stick to local and squashes
Daniel Cousineau // follow me : @dcousineau or http://dcousineau.com use
git svn locally push for team adoption procure git server full clone push to new git server
