java - Most robust way to convert a CVS repository containing Eclipse projects to git? -

-

i have situation have elderly cvs repository convert git once , while keeping full history etc.

all folders @ root of repository contains eclipse projects (either plain or dynamic web projects) including .classpath , .project. use team projectsets check out projects need given task (where project set located in project containing main, , rest library projects).

when team projectset checked out, workspace populated.

this approach has worked pretty many years (except project set part came 3.5), , work in similar way git if possible, uncertain how.

i've played git cvs import failed - due not using modules.

how suggest this, , how should work git allow our current usage of shared library projects? have introduce maven , create maven modules our library projects? or ant ivy?

edit: i've managed convert our cvs repository subversion suitable cvs2svn invocation , found eclipse recognizes resulting subversion repository nicely. unfortunately after cloning http://github.com/iteman/svn2git` , trying run bin/svn2git get

tra@sandbox:~/cvsgit/svn2git/svn2git$ bin/svn2git bin/svn2git:35:in `initialize': wrong number of arguments (2 1) (argumenterror)         bin/svn2git:35:in `new'         bin/svn2git:35

this ubuntu 10.04.1 lts server , i've tried various sudo things ruby , gems without understanding did not ruby programmer may have messed things bit. i'd appreciate advice - if easiest install linux variant conversion, fine.

edit:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/git http://css.dzone.com/articles/subversion-git-morning

edit: first try default svn2git completed (after while), , nice repository git branch -a reports 

tra@sandbox:~/gitroot/svnroot$ git branch -a * master   remotes/xx64_deployed_code   remotes/beta1   remotes/beta2   remotes/sv46   ... lots more

we interested in being able check out sv46 branch , work (we not care tags, actual branches). have set gitosis , pushed repository gitosis, , cloned computer find out how "work sv46" bit eclipse. that repository not know of branches:

tra@tra ~/git/git00 (master) $ git branch -a * master   remotes/origin/head -> origin/master   remotes/origin/master

do need massage original result svn2git information gitosis repository? need clone argument? should redo svn2git step suggested version instead of 1 shipping ubuntu?

edit: turned out publishing svn2git generated repository "git push --mirror" made things shown in gitosis repository. see following inside gitosis (trimmed):

tra@sandbox:/srv/gitosis/repositories/git01.git$ git branch -a * master   remotes/xx64_deployed_code   remotes/basic_beta1   remotes/beta1   remotes/beta2   remotes/sv46   ... lots more tra@sandbox:/srv/gitosis/repositories/git01.git$ git branch * master tra@sandbox:/srv/gitosis/repositories/git01.git$ git tag -l tra@sandbox:/srv/gitosis/repositories/git01.git$

trying clone repository git clone gitosis@sandbox:git01 -b remotes/sv46 or git clone gitosis@sandbox:git01 -b sv46 both tell me remote branch not found upstream origin, using head instead.

am barking wrong tree?

first of all, using submodules independent parts of central vcs repository (i.e. cvs repo) (see "what git limits?").
mean end many independent git repo, "set of files evolving independently 1 another", why submodules exist.

so multiple git import (in multiple repo) required.

but since git cvs import not task, recommend:

  • cvs2svn in order svn repo first (just 1 repo)
  • svn2git in order convert svn repo git 1 (i.e. transforming svn branches git branch and svn tags git tags)

unit testing - How to mock PreferenceManager in Android? -

-
i've written class using context , third party library , sharedpreferences preferencemanager . it's possible mock context , third party library can mocked using mocking framework, preferencemanager ? i have 2 methods: public void savestring(thirdpartyobject obj) { sharedpreferences apppreferences = preferencemanager.getdefaultsharedpreferences(mcontext); sharedpreferences.editor editor = apppreferences.edit(); editor.putstring(mcontext.getstring( r.string.preferences_string_name), obj.getstring()); editor.commit(); } and corresponding, loads preferences. it doesn't want mock instance of preferencemanager (which used in preferencefragment or preferenceactivity ). you want either: a mock sharedpreferences , in case can mock context#getsharedpreferences (which called preferencemanager#getdefaultsharedpreferences anyhow). you'll have make mock sharedpreferences.editor if preferences edited, above. know how moc...
