    Refactor

    Microservices you say?

    Create multiple git repos from one subversion repo, each with distinct content and full history.

    git svn index-filter and tree-filter commands

    Get out of the weeds

    Everyone has an opinion, yet there are very few answers for your exact situation. Most suggestions require arcane command-line foo and trial and error that we found to be unreliable and very time consuming. Devs don't care about the details. It just needs to work.

    Keep (Relevant) History

    It's all in there. The full copy of dojo someone committed back in '04. That 50MB PDF from your digital design firm. The 100MB data file that was going to help with integration testing. That huge binary you needed to ship.

     

    Trim the bloat. Keep what you want. Do it responsibly.

    Fork and push like a superhero

    In git-land, size matters. Keep your target repos lean and mean. Be ready to do battle in your next sprint.
