Doesn't git have builtin svn repo conversion?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 hours ago

Yes, the script uses git svn under the hood,
however it simplifies the process of a fair amount of steps,
to just x1 easy CLI command with an in/output parameter.

Can it do GIT -> SVN?

Thank you for asking.

In my particular use case we need strict access control.

Really depends on the situation.

I mean, the why is obvious. Whether anyone should do it is the real question ;-)

Nope, only SVN => Git
