How to move a Merge Proposal to GitHub
Situation: for example, I have this MP that I need to propose on GitHub: https://code.launchpad.net/~camptocamp/openerp-connector-magento/7.0-update-stock-1330450/+merge/223393
Using git-remote-bzr
Method using only Git and git-remote-bzr.
Install the tool
- Instructions to install
git-remote-bzron https://github.com/felipec/git-remote-bzr
Fork the repo
I go on https://github.com/OCA/connector-magento and I Fork the repo in my account, so I have https://github.com/guewen/connector-magento.
I clone the repository:
$ git clone git@github.com:guewen/connector-magento.git
I add the remote from the bzr branch:
$ cd connector-magento
$ git remote add 7.0-update-stock-1330450 bzr::lp:~camptocamp/openerp-connector-magento/7.0-update-stock-1330450
$ git fetch 7.0-update-stock-1330450
I push the remote branch to GitHub
$ git push origin refs/remotes/7.0-update-stock-1330450/master:refs/heads/7.0-update-stock-1330450
My branch is now in GitHub
Open the Pull Request
I open the new branch https://github.com/guewen/connector-magento/tree/7.0-update-stock-1330450 and create the pull request. I put the link to the original Launchpad request for the reviewers and committers.
Result here: https://github.com/OCA/connector-magento/pull/1
Using oca-copy-branches
This may be more convenient if you need to copy several branches at once.

Create a mapping file (in yaml format)
On this model:
[mapping.yml]
projects:
- github: git@github.com:guewen/connector-magento.git
branches:
- ['lp:~camptocamp/openerp-connector-magento/7.0-update-stock-1330450', 7.0-update-stock-1330450]
github is the GitHub repository where will the branch be pushed
branches is a list of branches to move from Launchpad to the GitHub repository, each line contains 1. the Launchpad URL of the branch, 2. the name that will be given to the branch in the Git repository
You can declare several projects or branches at once.
Run the command
$ mkdir branches
$ oca-copy-branches branches --push --mapping mapping.yml
The branch(es) will be moved to GitHub.
