I have a standard SVN repo with 4 SVN externals
I want to migrate it into a GIT repo without submodules (simply add the externals into my repo), and say "bye" to SVN
What is the best options on a Linux box to do it ?
I have created an authors.txt file
I have played with git-svn and svn2git from Github, but without success until yet.
In this stackoverflow answer you can find a nice set of steps to move from subversion to git including project renames. It doesn't take into account the externals, but might be a good place to start.
PS: I'm in the same situation as yourself... I was hoping someone would have answered to your question :-(
