Re: git svn clone terminating prematurely (I think)

Steven, In this case nohup seems like a pain. There is a utility called "screen" available on most unixes. It allows you to create a virtual terminal that you can detach from. After you detach you can log out, some time later log back in and then reattach. Steve On Jan 12, 2012, at 10:25 AM, Steven Line wrote:
Thank you Jonathan. I had a breakthrough yesterday on this problem. To make a long story short my ssh connection to the server where I was running 'nohup git svn clone' was timing out. Additionally the nohup I was using wasn't really protecting the git svn clone process so an hour or two after the ssh disconnected, the git would terminate leaving me with an imcomplete repository. I don't understand why the nohup wasn't working yet. So my problem wasn't due to git itself. I started my most recent git svn clone and it's now been running for 18 hours. I'm optimistic that I've solved the problem. If my git does terminate early then I'll try a 'git svn fetch' to complete the clone, based on what you said in your post. -- Steven Line 303-910-1212 sline00@gmail.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
