1 += Overview =
2 +
3 +
4 +We will migrate all the tfvc repos into one git repository called "migration" as a staging area to facilitate the process of moving the individual solutions into its final git location. This can be done in a delta fasion until we restrict the tfvc repos and everyone starts working off the git staging repo.
5 +
6 +Feature branches can be merged back into master via a pull request and the feature branches that are not applicable anymore can be abandoned.
7 +
8 += Migration process =
9 +
10 +
11 +The process to sync the tfvc to the git repo
12 +
13 +1. pull all the latest changes from TFVC via cli
14 +\\{{code language="powershell"}}tf vc workspace /new migration /collection:https://dev.azure.com/ebsphere
15 +mkdir c:\dev\src\migration
16 +cd c:\dev\src\migration
17 +tf vc get{{/code}}
18 +
19 +1. do an extract and dump into excel to generate the copy commands
20 +\\{{code language="PowerShell"}}forfiles /P C:\dev\src\migration /S /C "cmd /c echo @isdir;@ext;@path" >>list3.txt{{/code}}
21 +
22 +1. execute copy commands from excel generation
23 +11. this will split the source into master and feature branches
24 +
25 +1. A recon step must be performed at this stage to make sure all files where copied this is performed in excel
26 +11. get directory listing of copied files (dir/s/b %path% > list.txt) and dump into "recon" sheet and "recon" column in main sheet will indicate if any are missing with a 1
27 +11. rectify any problematic items
28 +
29 +1. run the [[tf-sync.ps1>>doc:.tf-sync.WebHome]] script
30 +11. this will parse the directories that was created into the migration repository
31 +111. see [[mappings >>doc:.mappings.WebHome]]for structure
32 +11. this will create or update the migration repository in GIT
33 +11. an .gitignore gets injected this will make sure binaries are excluded
34 +11. subsequent runs if the repo already exists will create a feature branch for the main branches timestamped with the date is was ran
35 +ie: /feature/master-20220202-172700
36 +
37 +
38 += Disable TFVC repository =
39 +
40 +After a repository has been moved to the staging environment and a call has been made to switch off the old repository we will put the old repository in read-only mode, the steps are:
41 +
42 +1. Notify the team and request that any pending changes need to be committed
43 +1. Do a final delta migration of the repository
44 +1. Disable inheritance on the repository
45 +1. Remove Contributors group
46 +1. Make sure the Readers group is present
