Hi,
I am trying to git-svn clone
https://svn.calendarserver.org/repository/calendarserver/CalendarServer/
and I cannot say I am much succesful. Every couple of hundred of commits
I get this:
RA layer request failed: REPORT of
'/repository/calendarserver/!svn/vcc/default': could not connect to
server (https://svn.calendarserver.org) at
/usr/local/share/perl5/Git/SVN/Ra.pm line 290.
and git-svn stops. When restarting git svn fetch, it fetches
another couple of hundred commits and then fails again. Given
that there are 11000+ commits just in the trunk, I am afraid of
a long long night. Did anybody managed to clone this repo? Or is
there some way how to make git-svn more patient (this error
means the SVN server is a bit flakey, right)?
Best,
Matěj

I have seen this behaviour, though never determined the root cause
.Probably the simplest thing you can do without access to the server
is to put your git svn fetch into a bash while loop, like so:
while ! git svn fetch; do :; done;

Of course, I did this, but still I wonder how much is the resulting git
repository http://luther.ceplovi.cz/git/CalendarServer.git/ faithful
representation of the original SVN one http://trac.calendarserver.org/.
Would not be something missing?
Best,
Matěj

They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little
temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

My experience is that the fetch will be atomic - it either fetches an
SVN commit or it doesn't.
Failure during dcommit is more painful and I usually find it is
necessary to manually use a git rebase to rebase the commits that
didn't make it to SVN on top of the commits that did.

Consider using (the somewhat experimental) git-remote-testsvn and the
underlying contrib/svn-fe/. For starters, try:
$ git clone testsvn::https://svn.calendarserver.org/repository/calendarserver/CalendarServer/
You might need to hack a bit to get it working properly, but you'll
find that it's much faster than git-svn in the long-run.
