Ability to import SVN history without increasing user accounts

Jeff Richard

We are in the process of switching to the Atlassian suite of products. Our SVN repositories are 13 years old. We have about 6-7 permanant developers on the team. So we purchased the "starter" version.

My issue is going back to the history, it keeps compaining about going over my license, because over the past 13 years, we have had developers that no longer work on this project or not even for the company anymore. How do i prevent these old users from increasing my user limit for my license?

Thanks,

Jeff

Hi Jeff,

This has been looked at in the past and we believe the limitations on starter licenses are appropriate. One workaround you could implement is to strip the old commits from the previous developers out of your SVN repository. See this stackoverflow answer for one method to do this.

Kind Regards,

Hm. Well that is no good, because then I lose the old versions. That is how I noticed this... I was doing a code review, and i noticed that fisheye/crucible identified that the ENTIRE file was a "new commit" and thus the entire file was "new" or "changed". I knew that was wrong, and did a SVN diff, and saw the 3 lines that were changed. I researched the seetings that might have caused this, and I determined that I didn't check the "follow base moves" check box. So i did that, and now it is getting the license error.

Is there any way I can get the previous commits, so that code reviews don't render the entire file (that was changed) as a new file? And still stay within my license (since i do not have more than 10 users).

As a side question, is there anyway to see the users that they are counting? When I click the users link in the admin area, I only have 7 listed.

Hi Jeff,

Unfortunately the starter license counts committers (to a specific repository) as well as users. You can view the comitters that Fisheye has identified for a repository by looking at the Users tab shown while browsing that repository.
