CONFIGURATION SUCCESSFUL To complete SubGit installation do the following: 1) Adjust Subversion to Git branches mapping if necessary: /home/user/repo.git/subgit/config 2) Define at least one Subversion credentials in default SubGit passwd file at: /home/user/repo.git/subgit/passwd OR configure SSH or SSL credentials in the [auth] section of: /home/user/repo.git/subgit/config 3) Optionally, add custom authors mapping to the authors.txt file(s) at: /home/user/repo.git/subgit/authors.txt 4) Run SubGit 'install' command: subgit install ./repo.gitSpecify authors mapping
Configure authors mapping in the default authors mapping file:
No Format GIT_REPOS/subgit/authors.txt
Or change
core.authorsoption so that it points to the global authors mapping file.Find more details about authors mapping in Authors mapping article.

No Format $ git clone GIT_REPO WORK_TREE
where
WORK_TREE– a path to your working copy.Expand title See git clone example… Code Block language text theme FadeToGrey title git clone example $ git clone file:///home/user/repo.git /home/user/repo_working_copy Cloning into '/home/user/repo_working_copy'... remote: Counting objects: 99, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (89/89), done. remote: Total 99 (delta 51), reused 0 (delta 0) Receiving objects: 100% (99/99), 8.96 KiB | 0 bytes/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (51/51), done.Warning title Empty working tree case If Git warns you that you are cloning an empty repository and you don't see your files in the working tree, most probably automatic branches and tags mapping didn't work correctly. In this case, mapping has to be set manually, see details on mapping in Branches and tags mapping.
