How to migrate from Mercurial to Git
Migrating from Mercurial to Git preserves complete repository history including branches, tags, and commit metadata during transition. With over 25 years of software development experience and as the creator of CoreUI, I’ve migrated legacy Mercurial repositories to Git for modern workflows. Git’s fast-export and Mercurial’s hg-fast-export tools enable conversion with full history preservation and author attribution. This approach ensures seamless transition from Mercurial to Git with complete audit trail and repository integrity.
How to migrate from SVN to Git
Migrating from Subversion to Git preserves complete repository history, branches, tags, and author information while transitioning to distributed version control. With over 25 years of software development experience and as the creator of CoreUI, I’ve migrated numerous legacy SVN repositories to Git. Git’s git-svn tool enables bidirectional communication with SVN repositories and full migration with history preservation. This approach ensures seamless transition from centralized to distributed version control with complete audit trail.
How to mirror a Git repository
Mirroring Git repositories creates exact copies including all branches, tags, and refs for backup, migration, or multi-location synchronization. With over 25 years of software development experience and as the creator of CoreUI, I’ve mirrored numerous repositories for disaster recovery and platform migrations. Git mirror cloning copies complete repository history and references, maintaining an exact replica that can be kept synchronized. This approach ensures complete backup coverage and enables seamless repository migration between hosting platforms.
