| 1 GitHug, the Hg-Git Plugin | |
| 2 ========================= | |
| 3 | |
| 4 This plugin is designed to allow you to push to a Git server over the Git | |
| 5 protocol and to pull from a Git based project. All data is stored in Hg | |
| 6 native format with a mapping table. People collaborating in Git should not | |
| 7 even be able to tell that you're using Hg to collaborate on their project. | |
| 8 Nothing should be kept in the Git format except perhaps for caching. | |

| 12 May need to use bookmarks extension to do everything better. | |

| 14 * Cloning from a Git Repository * | |
| 15 | |
| 16 hg init, hg add remote, hg gfetch, hg checkout | |
| 17 | |
| 18 * Fetching from a Git Repository * | |
| 19 | |
| 20 hg gremote add (git-url) | |
| 21 | |
| 22 hg gfetch origin (like a hg pull) | |
| 23 - connects to server (upload-pack) | |
| 24 - gets a list of server shas | |
| 25 - sees what it does not have (maps all unmapped shas, checks list) | |
| 26 - requests needed shas | |
| 27 - fetches packfile | |
| 28 - explodes | |
| 29 - converts parent linages to hg changesets | |
| 30 - updates local parents | |
| 31 | |
| 32 * Pushing to a Git Repository * | |
| 33 | |
| 34 hg gpush origin | |
| 35 - maps all unmapped shas | |
| 36 - connects to server | |
| 37 - needs/haves | |
| 38 - creates packfile of git versions of everything the server needs | |
| 39 - transfers it, updates local references (bookmarks?) | |
