Subject: Avery Pennarun's git-subtree?
Date: Wed, 21 Jul 2010 13:15:52 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4C472B48.8050101@gmail.com> (raw)

I've been using Avery Pennarun's git-subtree 
(http://github.com/apenwarr/git-subtree) for a while now and have been 
finding it very useful and problem-free.

Git submodules have been particularly problematic for me on a project 
which contains submodules which contain submodules.  git-subtree "just 
works", without any futzing.

We've also had problems with less git savvy users dropping patches 
because they've occurred inside of a module.

It would be really nice if git-subtree became an part of git.    Avery 
has submitted git-subtree in the past and has indicated a willingness to 
do so again if there was a good chance of acceptance.

Avery's announcment of v0.3 is also informative:

thank you,
Bryan
