Importing SVN repository to Jira

TonyD November 7, 2011

I am trying to import our repository with history into jira, but the file is 23GB.

When I try to upload this file to the dumps on our webDAV, the server kills the connection.

Is there a limit to how large the files can be?

If so, how would I be able to migrate our SVN repository into jira?

Thanks,

Tony.

We were hosting our own SVN on a box in the office.

I was trying to upload the svn dump from our box into jira, but this can't be done by the user.

If anyone else have a similar issue, log a ticket request with Atlassian and give them access to pull the file from you. (through http/ftp etc).

Just curious: What's the use case? Why would you want to upload a 23GB svn dump file into jira?

That was how big our SVN codebase was. It was kept in the basement box for about 10 years used by 20+ people.

I can understand why it's so big, but why import it into jira?

ACtually, I think I might be getting my products confused, but I was trying to import it into Jira/Fisheye.

What do you mean by importing SVN repository into Jira?

Do you mean accessing an existing SVN repository with JIRA?

Do you mean accessing an existing SVN repository that was used with a previous JIRA release?
