Migrating a Subversion repository

When possible, it is recommended to completely migrate a Subversion repository to Git; this is quite simple to do and mostly depends on the size of the Subversion repository and the organization.

If the repository follows the standard layout described earlier, a migration takes only a matter of minutes.

Retrieving the list of Subversion users

If your Subversion repository has been used by different people, you are probably interested in preserving commit author's names as is even in the new Git repository.
If the awk command is available (maybe using Git Bash shell or Cygwin while in Windows), there's a script here that fetches all the users from Subversion logs and appends them...
