Git : SVN plugin
Dariusz Piatkowski:
Has anyone here tried (or succeeded in) installing the SVN plug-in for the Git system?
I have Git 2.11.0 installed and wanted to pull some source from several SVNs repos. Instead of installing SVN as a separate version control system I figured I would just try to utilizes Git instead.
However, to do so you need to install git-svn and that's where I'm running into a problem, a pre-requisite is missing and unfortunately trying to install it causes another error which I can not figure out.
Specifically, git-svn has the following dependency: perl-Git-SVN.noarch 2.11.0-4.oc00, which in turn shows this final error:
--- Code: ---...
dependency: perl(SVN::Core)
Unsatisfied dependency
dependency: perl(SVN::Delta)
Unsatisfied dependency
dependency: perl(SVN::Ra)
Unsatisfied dependency
...
--- End code ---
What does "unsatisfied dependency" mean? How does one deal with this? Or is this a case of the RPM package itself having the wrong configuration?
I have no idea what is provided by the problem packages, but is this a case where perhaps I could try the RPM '-nodeps' parm?
Thanks!

git-svn is broken and never worked, so no way

Only on our platform or all platforms?
To me it looks like the dependent modules could be built from CPAN, unluckily it has been so long since I built any modules that I forget the procedure though back in the day, it worked well.

Hmm, alright, so for what it's worth I am thinking an install of SVN will get me places faster.
A while back I grabbed SVN 1.7.21 from Paul's site (unable to get to it at the moment to check for updates). The official SVN (http://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/) is up to 1.14 level now, with 1.13 being classified as production release.
Are there any plans to at least get us party further than our 1.7.x release?
For what it's worth the RPM package is even older 1.6.16.2.

IIRC correctly if you check in with 1.7 you can't check out with 1.6 anymore. Think you can't use our SmartSVN afterwards too. Maybe I'm totally wrong here and someone else knows the details.
