But we have hundreds of packages, and I would like to import them en masse to the new instance -- preferably with full history intact.
Are there existing tools to do that?
Not a good one at least ... We have a planned feature for a remote copy project support including binaries and history, but that won't help you now.
I'll cheer you on from a distance. ;-)
Can't you just rsync the backend data and clone the database to your new host and run the usual migration?
There's a usual migration? That's good to know! I don't recall seeing it mentioned in either the Reference Guide or Admin Guide. Just double-checked, and I still don't see it. I google'd for "obs migration" and "obs upgrade", and nothing obvious jumps out at me. So... how do I migrate data from an old OBS (originally set up in 2008, last updated around 2011) to v2.7? Also, I have been unable to figure out how to get into the database, which could be useful. Is that documented anywhere? Or do I just have to find the right config file and figure it out from that. (I know nothing about Rails or Ruby or configuring databases for Rails apps.) Thanks!
