hosting multiple project in single git repository

hosting multiple project in single git repository

[S. M. Ibrahim (Lavlu)]

hi,

in our company we are moving all our subversion repository to git.
git-svn is working really nice. but facing a problem. we have one svn
repository where we hosted two projects and both the projects are
under development. project a is trunk and project b is branch/xxxx .
and project b was copied from trunk . we have plan to merge this two
project in future. what is the best way to maintain this two project
in git ? should we make to different git repository .

thanks

If they both branched from the same place and they might be merged
back together someday, then keeping them in the same repository seems
rather harmless.  And you can always split the repositories later if
you want.  Similarly, you can check out the same repository in two
different local directories on two different branches and it's
essentially equivalent to having two repositories in the first place.

What problems are you having with the setup as it is now?

Have fun,

Avery

thanks for reply. we imported the hole svn repository in git. now the
project b is a branch of the repository. and project a is the master .
can you please show me a little example how can i pull and push from
and to particular branch.

my plan is to use two different folder for these two project.

thanks
