Project Description
bbhg2git is a simple Python 3.7 script that makes use of the BitBucket 2.0 API to identify and create new equivalent Git repositories and a Git/Mercurial compatibility addon to do the conversion. It is completely non-destructive - your existing repositories will not be affected!
I've used it only in a Cygwin environment on Windows but I tried to keep it fairly generic so hopefully it will work anywhere that Python 3 is installed. I used Python 3.7.4.
Its internal functionality is approximately as follows:
1) Ensure git and git-remote-hg are available on PATH 2) Connect (authenticate) to BitBucket API 3) Read list of projects for user 4) For each project: 5) If it's not a Mercurial project, skip processing 6) If a Git equivalent project exists already, skip processing 7) Create Git equivalent project on BitBucket 8) Clone project locally using git clone --mirror with hg:: prefix 9) Push local project to new git remote using git push --mirror
