[jboss-dev] Porting SVN Projects to Git

[Kabir Khan]

I've put what I have in my svn username - git author mapping file for the projects I have imported so far here: http://community.jboss.org/wiki/Git-SvnAuthorMappings

If we keep it up to date it means less work when importing your next project. Although it displays an icon next to the email addresses, for me the disappears when I copy and paste into a text editor.
