I am not familar with messaging the push command. Thanks a lot.

Offhand, my guess would be that the commit-msg hook isn't platform independent and is giving you problems on Windows. As a workaround, you can amend your latest commit on master (git commit -a --amend) and copy+paste that suggested Change-Id into the message.

There's no way to "convert" an installation, you just have to re-checkout I want more information on installation proces. /Steen ______________________________**_________________ Pywikipedia-l mailing list Pywikipedia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.**org &lt;Pywikipedia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org&gt; https://lists.wikimedia.org/**mailman/listinfo/pywikipedia-l<https://lis…

No, I know about that page but it's not useful. I know I must do a new checkout, but I'd use a guide on how to do so in the best way. How to list "my" files in the folder (there are so many...)? What will happen with files with local modifications (svn handles them very easily)? What changes in git compared to what you can/have to do with svn? For now I only tried making the checkout and then moving over all old files, but then I can't merge them because git thinks everything is up to date. I guess I can try doing the opposite, but it's so easy to waste hours and get terrible headaches with git that I know I'll be too lazy to do any update for months (until something breaks horribly) unless I have a guide. Thanks. Nemo

For the records, I've been happy to see some work on wiki documentation, but if a guide for SVN checkout conversion appeared I've missed it. I tried to do 1) checkout of compat, 2) copy of old checkout over new one, and 3) git stash / git pull / git stash pop as suggested in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Bugzilla/Fields , but git pull claims everything is up to date and while I get my files back the checkout is broken. Hence, still using last SVN version (+ the https hack). Nemo

I've still not seen any instructions, BTW. Having to move files one by one from old to new checkout is a pain.
