r.e. moving from SVN to HG - I've had success with the various tools [1] in converting entire histories to mercurial [2] (it was about 400 change sets) and also have been maintaining an SVN/HG dual repository for a wordpress plugin.

- dchs 17y agoWe looked into porting our history across but decided we were unlikely to regress beyond our current version (we do still maintain our SVN copy for reference). Good to know it's possible though - thanks for the links!
- ErrantX 17y agoThe only gripe I have with mercurial is the fact that hg copy doesn't move the file history too. It's annoying because I went to all that effort to convert the SVN repository into mercurial so as to keep the file history.. then reorganized the folders and "lost" it (on a per file basis) :) Bah.
- dchs 17y agoDidn't know that - thanks for the tip. Haven't been bitten by it yet...
