I have the following situation (mostly because I didn't really thought it through in the beginning -- or more exactly, I thought it shouldn't be a problem the way I did this but now I am stumbled):
... --- A --- B1 --- ... --- Bn
... --- git-svn
Whereby A
and git-svn
are at the same state (exactly the same files and file content) but they don't have any common point in history.
And I want:
... --- git-svn --- B1 --- ... --- Bn
Or at least, when I do the svn dcommit, I want exactly to get the commits B1
to Bn
and nothing else.
I am not exactly sure how dcommit works. So if I would get something like this:
... ------------ A --- B1 --- ... --- Bn
\ \
... --- git-svn -- A' ----------------- B'
would the dcommit behave in the way I want? Because if so, that would be easy to get (merging A
into git-svn
does work just fine because they are content-wise the same).
Or should I do some sort of rebase? But I don't want to rebase A
on git-svn
, just B1
to Bn
.
