I have a big project, currently using GIT, and I wish to take some sudirectories -or libraries- and put them in a separate repo (and incorporate them via submodule support), so other commiters can have access to a specific part of the project only. Is it possible to somehow export the history of say lib/componentX into a new repository componentX.git? Thank you very much! Guillermo ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 2+ messages in thread
