RE: Non-unique tag names across projects that should not be merged during conversion to svn

Hello Vasanth,

I solved this (ok, it looks like one I solved) by using options file and “multiproject” conversion. Here is part of my letter half year ago:

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


I hope this helps you.

Regards,
  Dmitry

Michael,

I tried the multiproject conversion approach. Even though it migrates all the non-unique tags correctly (to different tag folders, such as, SVNURL/ProjA/tags, SVNURL/ProjB/tags), it did the same for trunk and branches as well. But that is not the structure I am aiming for. I would like to see one common trunk and branches at the root. I tried changing the trunk/branches/tags_path option for each of the project, but it didn't give me the structure I wanted. I would like either of these two output structures:
