# Summary The purpose of hg2git is to convert a Mercurial repository to a Git repository. All mechanism of conversion is based on [fast-export](https://github.com/frej/fast-export.git) tool. # Launch conversion docker run -it -v ~/anyproject-hg:/work/projectname -v ~/project-result-git:/work/result lroche/hg2git projectname or if you don't want to specifiy projectname: docker run -it -v ~/anyproject-hg:/work/project -v ~/project-result-git:/work/result lroche/hg2git the run uses two bound volumes, one for hg source, other for git target result. the name of project has no matter but it will be the same between /work/projectname and the argument of the command (here projectname) # How to retrieve git conversion ? The result of git conversion can be found behind the /work/result volume
