Any recommendations on improvements to my approach for migration away from Veracity?
Background:
I finally hit my limit with Veracity:
- all attempted commits (after 6 months of use) suddenly give "
Error 101 (sqlite): sg_wc_db:tbl_gid can't find alias 7033.
" (I searched - couldn't find help on this anywhere). - Veracity 2.5 (the latest version) is over 4.5 years old at the time of this latest edit.
- "Questions" link at http://veracity-scm.com/qa (which was formerly useful) now
gives a 404simply redirects back to the home page. - The online community surrounding Veracity seems too small, and http://sourcegear.com/ seems focused on its non-open source version control systems, instead.
In summary, I've lost confidence in Veracity to manage my significant bits.
Extraction Approach I Used (admittedly low-tech):
- used "
vv fast-export
" to get a fast-import stream for my new DVCS. This preserved the source history. - Manually copied out my Veracity wiki pages to another existing wiki I use.
- (Most tediously) Pored over my Veracity Work Items to make sure I didn't lose information critical to my project.
Conclusion:
I was originally seduced by the integrated wiki & bug tracking features of Veracity. I now regret that choice, and have moved back to a more mainstream DVCS option.
