Planning to move from CVS to SVN, but I am not sure how to handle the transfer.... 1) We have used CVSNT since 2001, but we have not used any specific CVSNT additions that I know of. THe CVSNT version is 2.5.03.2382
2) The server handles 6 different repositories organized as subdirectories below E:\CVSREPOS 3) The permissions are different for these repositories and are handled through Windows file system access permissions via AD groups 4) Some projects (especially in the PC repository) are defined in the CVSROOT/modules file as a combination of files/folders from different physical trees. 5) The repositories total 32787 files with a combined size of 7.9 GB. Now I wonder how I should go about migrating to SVN? What I have read indicates that the cvs2svn script does not use the information within the CVSROOT admin directory of each repository, so I guess I have to re-create something similar in SVN after the files have been converted? Does SVN have a concept like the modules file such that one can create virtual modules for checkout where some files/folders are shared between projects (common code)? Can I use Windows Server 2016 as the server for the SVN repository(s)? -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden
