So here is what I discover to copy/over the old setup to the new one:
Login to your shell space:
$ ssh -t malat,gdcm@shell.sf.net createAs 17/12/2012, the sf-help command is not really helpful since it only returns path to my old git directory:
% sf-help [...] Your project DSCM repositories are here (use adminrepo for CVS and SVN): /home/scm_git/g/gd/gdcm
Anyway I discover this is right here:
$ cd /home/git/p/gdcm
The new system is not as flexible, you cannot easily create new directory:
[malat@shell-22006]/home/git/p/gdcm% touch bla.git touch: cannot touch `bla.git': Permission denied
Instead you have to go back to the web interface, go 'Admin', then 'Tools', then click 'Git'. It will ask for a Label and a Mount Point, in my case I wanted Code/code to become Gdcm/gdcm. Fill accordingly to your project. Click ok.
Now if you go back to
$ cd /home/git/p/gdcm
You'll be pleasantly surprised... that nothing happened. Even if you log off, and log back in, no gdcm.git has been created...well technically yes. Simply type:
[malat@shell-22006]/home/git/p/gdcm% shutdown
and then log back in:
$ ssh -t malat,gdcm@shell.sf.net create $ cd /home/git/p/gdcm
And now, you can edit in place file as you want
[malat@shell-22006]/home/git/p/gdcm% echo "super" > gdcm.git/description
Now all is left to do is copy code.git over to gdcm.git:
$ git clone --mirror git://git.code.sf.net/p/gdcm/code $ cd code.git $ git push --mirror --all ssh://malat@git.code.sf.net/p/gdcm/gdcm
You can even use diff to your old rep:
[malat@shell-22006]/home/git/p/gdcm% diff -ru gdcm.git /home/scm_git/g/gd/gdcm/gdcm
Of course, when you are done, go back to Allura web interface, go to Admin/Tools and select select Git/Code and click 'Delete'.
Hope this help !
Update: Only after struggling with this did I discover the path was actually documented here:
