Created by Lionel Roche and updated by Michel Bats as there was no support for repository format sparse-revlog in the latest version published on DockerHub.

The purpose of hg2git is to convert a Mercurial repository to a Git repository. All mechanism of conversion is based on fast-export tool.

Launch conversion

docker compose up -d

The compose file uses two bind mount volumes, one for hg source, other for git target result.

Create the folder project and result. Use the project folder for your Mercurial repository, the converted git repository will be in the result folder.

How to retrieve git conversion ?

The result of git conversion can be found behind the /work/result volume
