About:
git-svn is a built-in Git command that provides a bidirectional operation between a Subversion (SVN) repository and a Git repository. It allows developers to fetch updates from an SVN repository into a local Git clone and push Git commits back to the SVN remote. This tool is essential for teams migrating to Git or for developers who need to interact with legacy SVN infrastructure while using a modern Git workflow.
Key Features:
  • Bidirectional synchronization between Git and SVN repositories
  • Preserves SVN history, including branches and tags
  • Standard Git commands can be used locally (e.g., branching, committing)
  • No server-side SVN configuration required
Use Cases:
  • Migrating a project from SVN to Git incrementally
  • Using Git locally while the central repository remains on SVN
  • Contributing to open-source projects that are hosted on SVN
Alternatives:
  • SubGit – A more powerful, server-side tool for seamless SVN-to-Git migration and synchronization, offering better performance and bi-directional mirror support.
  • svn2git – A one-time conversion tool that migrates an SVN repository to a Git repository but does not support ongoing bidirectional synchronization.
