Dave Fisher commented on INCUBATOR-288:
---------------------------------------
When you do a git-svn clone of the incubator repository it actually reviews the
over one million commits to the whole ASF svn repository. I did it recently to
move a folder of OpenOffice's and it took me four hours.
Nothing surprising here.
> svn clone of incubator repo takes > 12 hours

> Project: Incubator
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Jordan West
> Priority: Major
>
> Recently when accepting a donation to the Cassandra project I needed to
> update content/ip-clearance/cassandra-easy-cass-stress.xml in the incubator
> repo. Not being familiar with svn (given its relatively limited applicability
> in modern usage of source control) I opted to use git-svn. The clone took
> over 12 hours (and thats not counting the number of times it failed due to
> things like network issues and required being restarted). Its possible I
> could've reduced this by having more knowledge of SVN. However, my task was
> to update 4 lines (about 16 characters) in a file. The task ended up spanning
> several days to complete when it should've taken less than a couple minutes.
> The project should move to git.
