Subject: Merge git repositories
Date: Wed, 20 Feb 2008 17:59:01 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080220175901.71e7acc2@pc09.procura.nl> (raw)
I have a whole bunch of git repositories that are conversions from SCCS.
SCCS is a VCS that only deals with a single directory, and cannot cope
with directory hierarchies.
At first the move was received very positive, but now that people see
the strengths of a `real' VCS, it would be way more logical to combine
all the git repos that make up a single project into a single large repo
that includes all directories
SCCS
.../top /SCCS
/foo /SCCS
/bar /SCCS
/baz /SCCS
=>
git
.../top /.git
/foo /.git
/bar /.git
/baz /.git
=> ?
git
.../top /.git
/foo
/bar /baz
is it possible to merge git repos from sub-folders into the current repo?
