Subject: Stopping git-svn updates of GCC git mirror for move to git
Date: Wed, 08 Jan 2020 12:48:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.21.2001081241050.14553@digraph.polyomino.org.uk> (raw)

For the final conversion of GCC to git we'll need to stop git-svn updates 
of the existing mirror, which will be moved and replaced with a fresh 
clean conversion from SVN.

Where does the git-svn process updating that mirror run and how can it be 
disabled at the appropriate time?  What I propose is that once the nightly 
DATESTAMP updates for Saturday have run (shortly after midnight UTC), I 
check in a README.MOVED_TO_GIT file on SVN trunk, then change the SVN 
hooks to make the SVN repository readonly.  Then, once git-svn has 
mirrored those changes, the git-svn mirroring should be shut down.  I'll 
set up a pre-receive hook in the mirror to stop further changes being 
pushed to it, but we don't want git-svn to start trying to push changes to 
the new repository once that's been moved into place and made writable.
