Hi,
I try to convert a local SCN repository (with all its history) to Mercurial. I am working on a Mac (10.6.2). Therefore, I am using Macports as package management tool.

I started the conversion with:

hg convert file:// ´pwd´/calebsvn/ 

The result is, that it starts to work fine, but after a while, it stops. That is the output:

initializing svn wc 'calebsvn-wc'
** unknown exception encountered, details follow
** report bug details to http://mercurial.selenic.com/bts/
** or [email protected]
** Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 1.4.2)

I searched you mailing list and I found the instruction to test the svn bindings in my local python installation. They work as you can see on the following output:

$ python -c 'import svn.core; print svn.core.SVN_VER_MAJOR, svn.core.SVN_VER_MINOR'

Thanks and appreciation of your help!

Ok. I got it.

I overlooked the comment of the python26 installation with Macports that this python version has still to be selected by installing and executing a script. The problem was that I still worked on the original Python on Snow Leopard. Therefore, I executed additionally to the python26 installation

sudo ports install python-select
sudo python_select python26

and tried the conversion again. The conversion then instantly worked.

That's `sudo port install python_select`

Expanding on bolidor's question and answer:

If you're having trouble converting a repository from Subversion and Mercurial, and you use MacPorts, you'll probably want to:

  1. Install the subversion python bindings:

    sudo port install subversion-python26bindings
    
  2. Switch to MacPorts python:

    sudo port install python_select
    sudo python_select python26
    
  3. Do your conversion

  4. Switch back your python (optional)

    sudo python_select python26-apple
