Re: divand repository (hg to git)

[Alexander Barth]

Dear Laurent,

This is great! Thank you very much for the detailed instructions.
Below is what I did with some sourceforge specific config commands from here: https://sourceforge.net/p/forge/documentation/Git/#how-to-push-a-local-repository.

I think that an empty git repository has to be created by Carnë (or colleagues) so that the last command can succeed.

Regards,

Alex
