Unfortunat= ely=20 mismatches have crept in over time between the version in hg and the upstre= am=20 repository, and I do see warnings about untracked files in the conversion=20 process. I am not sure whether this is due to an outright problem with cvs20hg (whic= h=20 was never claimed by the author to be perfect), or something environmental.= =20 Either way I have not investigated. The question is whether there exists a trustworthy p4->{git,hg,mtn,whatever= }=20 conversion path. The best way to find out is probably to try it out,=20 preferably on the real repository. In terms of my offer host, the problem with hg is that the hg CGI script is= =20 not scalable (separate huge python process for each concurrent client, and= =20 significant resources requires for each synch, increasing the potential for= =20 concurrency). My impression is that git should be hugely more scalable in=20 this regard, so was hoping for reliable p4->git in particular for this=20 reason. =2D-=20 / Peter Schuller PGP userID: 0xE9758B7D or 'Peter Schuller ' Key retrieval: Send an E-Mail to getpgpkey@scode.org E-Mail: peter.schuller@infidyne.com Web: http://www.scode.org --nextPart2527506.ZOMVskNZ7E Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBHyozBDNor2+l1i30RAkvZAKDpVmemWnpWbvmHRXa/xQ23KP9/zACcCJvS SbGPh+qImIsECpPuHssTOpE= =vao1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart2527506.ZOMVskNZ7E--
