### cloning and EDIT svn repo

Clone a svn sub-repository. It is important to specify the sub folders in trunk branches and tags!!

Here the subrepo drupal is used in the example:

~~~

 git svn clone -T trunk/drupal -t tags/drupal -b branches/drupal http://dev.e-taxonomy.eu/svn ./

~~~

create git ignore:

~~~

git-svn show-ignore > .gitignore

~~~

### reference on git/svn command equivalents

* svn up => git svn rebase

* svn commit => git svn dcommit (will commit latest commits in git to the svn repository

### revering via reset

 whipe out all changes in working directory, and replace with HEAD revision

~~~

git reset --hard HEAD 

~~~

### resolving merge conflicts

~~~

 git mergetool

~~~

#### keep either file in merge conflicts

There’s two unmerged files here. According to the git checkout manpage, there’s a --theirs and --ours options on the command. The former will keep the version of the file that you merged in, and the other will keep the original one we had.

The following commands will keep the original file for index.html, and then use the merged in file only for _layouts/default.html.

~~~

git checkout --ours filename.c

git checkout --theirs filename.c

git add filename.c

git commit -m "using theirs"

~~~

### reintegrating an svn branch

~~~

git checkout <merge-to branch>; git merge --squash <merge-from branch>; git commit; git svn dcommit # --squash is key

~~~

delete or lock the branch afterwards!

### lock an svn branch

not equivalent in git, thus you need to use svn for it.

checkout:

~~~

svn co http://dev.e-taxonomy.eu/svn/branches/mybranch

~~~

lock in zsh with

~~~

svn lock <root>/**/*(.) 

~~~

in bash with

~~~

 find <root> -type f | xargs svn lock

~~~

commit the changes:

~~~

svn commit -m "branch locked"

~~~
