Converting Mercurial folder to a Git repository

I don't have a huge experience with Mercurial, I'm mostly a Git guy.

I would love to mirror a specific Mercurial folder/file in a git Repository. What I'm actually trying to do is to export the history of a file from a Mercurial repository to Git and being able to keep this in sync with future commits.

Do you have any suggestion on how to proceed? I believe that the way to go should be to get the history of the Mercurial patch, periodically export every single commit as a patch and apply the Mercurial patches to the Git repository.


尝试快速导出:

cd
git clone git://repo.or.cz/fast-export.git
git init git_repo
cd git_repo
~/fast-export/hg-fast-export.sh -r /path/to/old/mercurial_repo
git checkout HEAD

Hg-Git extension

Hg-Git can be used to convert a Mercurial repository to Git. You can use a local repository or a remote repository accessed via SSH, HTTP or HTTPS.

Example of local repositories conversion.

  • Install Hg-Git.

  • On Windows, TortoiseHg comes with Hg-Git, though you need to enable it via the setting tool (in extensions section)

    TortoiseHg设置

    or manually in ~/mercurial.ini

    [extensions]
    hggit =
    
  • Use the following commands to convert the repository:

    $ mkdir git-repo; cd git-repo; git init; cd ..
    $ cd hg-repo
    $ hg bookmarks hg
    $ hg push ../git-repo
    
  • The hg bookmark is necessary to prevent problems as otherwise hg-git pushes to the currently checked out branch confusing Git. This will create a branch named hg in the Git repository. To get the changes in master use the following commands (only necessary in the first run, later just use git merge or rebase ):

    $ cd git-repo
    $ git checkout -b master hg
    

    You can (from Mercurial side):

  • using Convert extension with --filemap option convert part of original repo into smaller with only needed files|directories
  • with hg-git extension push stripped repo to Git
  • or (instead of hg-git), using Mercurial bridge in Git, clone|pull repository from Git
