SYNOPSIS

git svn <command> [options] [arguments]

DESCRIPTION

git svn is a simple conduit for changesets between Subversion and Git. It provides a bidirectional flow of changes between a Subversion and a Git repository.

git svn can track a standard Subversion repository, following the common "trunk/branches/tags" layout, with the --stdlayout option. It can also follow branches and tags in any layout with the -T/-t/-b options (see options to init below, and also the clone command).

Once tracking a Subversion repository (with any of the above methods), the Git repository can be updated from Subversion by the fetch command and Subversion updated from Git by the dcommit command.

COMMANDS

init

Initializes an empty Git repository with additional metadata directories for git svn. The Subversion URL may be specified as a command-line argument, or as full URL arguments to -T/-t/-b. Optionally, the target directory to operate on can be specified as a second argument. Normally this command initializes the current directory.

-T<trunk_subdir>
--trunk=<trunk_subdir>
-t<tags_subdir>
--tags=<tags_subdir>
-b<branches_subdir>
--branches=<branches_subdir>
-s
--stdlayout: These are optional command-line options for init. Each of these flags can point to a relative repository path (--tags=project/tags) or a full url (--tags=https://foo.org/project/tags). You can specify more than one --tags and/or --branches options, in case your Subversion repository places tags or branches under multiple paths. The option --stdlayout is a shorthand way of setting trunk,tags,branches as the relative paths, which is the Subversion default. If any of the other options are given as well, they take precedence.
--no-metadata: Set the noMetadata option in the [svn-remote] config. This option is not recommended, please read the svn.noMetadata section of this manpage before using this option.
--use-svm-props: Set the useSvmProps option in the [svn-remote] config.
--use-svnsync-props: Set the useSvnsyncProps option in the [svn-remote] config.
--rewrite-root=<URL>: Set the rewriteRoot option in the [svn-remote] config.
--rewrite-uuid=<UUID>: Set the rewriteUUID option in the [svn-remote] config.
--username=<user>: For transports that SVN handles authentication for (http, https, and plain svn), specify the username. For other transports (eg svn+ssh://), you must include the username in the URL, eg svn+ssh://foo@svn.bar.com/pr
