[Nix-dev] Relocation of svn repos, and git-svn

[Peter Simons]

Hi Lluís,

I didn't have local branches.

You can pull local branches from the old repository into the new one:

  git fetch /my/old/nixpkgs local-branch:local-branch

Then rebase them with regard to trunk (or whatever branch they were
originally derived from):

  git checkout local-branch
  git rebase trunk

After that, "git svn rebase" should do the right thing automatically.

Take care,
Peter
