RE[2]: How to change tags "copy source"? - SOLUTION

Brilliant idea!

Thank you muchly, Tino!

This solved my "problem" :)

My full solution (for archive):


1) change .options file (like help describes):

-----
import os
cvs_repo_main_dir = r'D:\Temp\cvs\products\ifc\src' #this folder contain "component" subfolders
projects = os.listdir(cvs_repo_main_dir)

# Exclude some 'trash'
projects.remove('CVS')
projects.remove('connect1Cdemo')
projects.remove('configDemo')

for project in projects:
    run_options.add_project(
      cvs_repo_main_dir + '\\' + project,
      trunk_path='trunk/' + project,
      branches_path='branches_old', # I decided to have all 'old' (CVS) branch tags at different folder
      tags_path='tags_old/' + project, # I decided to have 'old' tags at different path, and with subfolders (for each component), because I have ~2000 tags

# this are defaults
      initial_directories=[   ],
      symbol_transforms=[
         ReplaceSubstringsSymbolTransform('\\','/'),
         NormalizePathsSymbolTransform(),
      ],
      symbol_strategy_rules=[ ] + global_symbol_strategy_rules,
    )
-----

Also, don't forget to change other options (SVN repository/dump file location, etc)!

2) Run conversion

cvs2svn --options=my.options

3) After importing dump file to SVN (I set "--parent-dir /ifc"), I have this layout:

* ifc
** branches_old
*** componentA_branch_X_A
*** componentB_branch_X_A
*** ...
** tags_old
*** componentA
**** componentaA_tag_1_0_2
**** componentaA_tag_1_1_1
*** component
**** ...
** trunk
*** componentA
*** component

And 'show log' for any tag  shows only one operation 'copy', from '/ifc/trunk/componentName' to 'ifc/trunk_old/componentName/componentName_tag_X_Y_Z'
