Are there ways to migrate views in StarTeam to a DVCS like GIT? Anyone

Wow, I've never even heard of StarTeam. AFAIK, there is no converter
already (as in, I have never heard of one, and searching the list

Getting history data into git is usually easy. If you can generate a
series of snapshots, at worst you can script around commiting each one.
Or you can write to the "git fast-import" input language, which is,
well...fast.

The tricky part will be getting your data out of StarTeam, which is
apparently not very easy:
