If you are currently on Mendix 9.24, the safest approach is to first move to the latest 9.24 LTS patch and then perform the SVN → Git migration.


Upgrade to the latest LTS patch

Before starting the migration, upgrade the project to the latest Mendix 9.24 LTS patch (for example 9.24.35). Running the most recent LTS patch helps ensure you have the newest security fixes, bug fixes, and stability improvements in the 9.24 line. It also reduces the chance of issues during the migration.


Migrate the repository from SVN to Git

From Mendix 10 onwards, Git is the required version control system, so projects that still use SVN need to migrate their repository.


The migration is a one-time process and can be done using Mendix’s migration tool in the Developer Portal. Normally this step is executed by the Scrum Master, since it involves converting the repository and verifying that everything is set up correctly.


After the migration finishes, the new Git repository should be checked to make sure the project history and branches are correctly transferred. Developers will then need to clone the project again locally because the old SVN working copy will no longer be used.


Recommended order

A typical and safe sequence would be:

  • Upgrade the project to Mendix 9.24.35 (latest LTS patch)
  • Run the SVN → Git migration
  • Verify the new Git repository
  • Re-clone the project locally from the Git repository


Hope this helps 🙂
