Thanks Tor Arne. Can you elaborate a bit on the commands used for a prefixed 
subtree merge? Or point to a page that explains it?

Subject: Re: [Development] Merging qtquickcontrols2 into qtdeclarative

One way to do this is with a prefixed subtree merge without squashing the 
history of controls2.

What ossi (?) referred to was using git replace to inject the history of 
controls, but I’m not sure how that would look so perhaps he can outline that 
approach.

Cheers,
Tor Arne

Hi.

The consensus from the contributor's summit session regarding 
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-79454 was that qtquickcontrols2 should be 
merged into qtdeclarative:

https://wiki.qt.io/QtCS2021_-_Testing_upstream_changes_with_downstream_modules#Move_specific_modules_into_the_repository_of_the_module_they_depend_on

In terms of Git, what is the best way to proceed with this? Which commands 
should be used? Any specific things to be aware of? For example, one note made 
during the session was:

“Graft history in, don't merge it.”

Cheers.
