Subject: import files w/ history
Date: Tue, 3 Mar 2009 12:54:54 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]

Hi,

How could I import some files from an unrelated git repo with history?
And if I'd like to use different paths? Eg:

Say the other repo has these files:

lib/trees/rb_tree.{c,h}

and I want to import them into my repo as

include/rb_tree.h
src/rb_tree.c

(In fact I just have a single file to import and I don't want to
vary paths, yet I'm curious about this extended case, too.)

Thanks,
Csaba
