I'm trying to convert a subversion repository to mercurial a one and at this point I'm just banging my head against the wall.
On the current windows server the following programs are installed:
Visual SVN Server,
TortoiseHg,
Python2.7
In my console I run the command
hg convert [dest] [source]
Which gives a lot of errors about the repository being of different types and also this
could not load Subversion python bindings
After some googling I found that those bindings are supposed to be included with TortoiseHg, but as I already mentioned I have TortoiseHg installed and it's still not working. I then tried to download the svn python bindings and read somewhere that I should add them in the Python27/Lib/site-packages directory but it's still not working. I think that I maybe have to recompile those bindings with python or something, but I've never used python so I'm pretty lost
You used parameters in incorrect order
hg convert [OPTION]... SOURCE [DEST [REVMAP]]
For TortoiseHG 3.4 and later you must to download and enable Subversion bindings as separate extension
[extensions] ... svnbindings = c:\insertpath.py
hg version --svn), you can't convert 1.8 repositories with file:/// access-protocol, only with any networking>hg version --svn ... hgsubversion: 538bbb927609 Subversion: 1.7.5 bindings: SWIG
