Hi Alex,
I found that format-patch can be given a path, so that it only produces patch
for it. Here is how I have prepared a new cufflinks repository:
debcheckout -a git://git.debian.org/debian-med/cufflinks.git --git-track='*'
cd cufflinks/
git format-patch 0b7256275dc8b8f7495a46b6b33739573fd0d1c0 debian/
# 0b7256275dc8b8f7495a46b6b33739573fd0d1c0 is my last commit in this
repository
mv 00* ..
git reset --hard 0b7256275dc8b8f7495a46b6b33739573fd0d1c0

If you like the new repository, I will delete the old one. The dates are not
completely consistent, but overall things look better and simpler than before.
I hope that I have not horrified others more used to Subversion. The
repository as it was before the correction was completely functional, and the
issue that I have fixed is borderline cosmetic :)
Have a nice day,
Dear Charles ,
Thank you for the help and the explanation .
The repository looks much better , so I think we should leave it .
Such a nice features shouldn't be horrifying at all :)
Best regards ,
Alex
