Hi,
I'm after a way to move some files with history from one branch to a new
one or into a new repository at all.
Here's the why:
I have one repository for my smallest projects, from bigger script in
batch, bash, awk, etc to small projects in java with like 2-3 classes or
so. Nothing of that is worth getting a repository or even a branch of
its own, since it comes down to just a couple of files and the overhead
for managing a repository for everything of that would just bloat things up.
For example my main repository (scrapbook) has one branch for java
projects (little ones) one branch for scripts and so on. The branch for
scripts has several folders for each scripting-language, filesystem
looks routhly like this:
fossil-root
- java
-- java proj 1
-- java proj 2
-- java proj 3
- scripts
-- bash
-- awk
-- batch
But as you know, time passes by and a small pet-project evolves, maybe
theres a new usecase where the old code can be a good startup. Now
theres one project between 50 small ones thats worthy beeing exportet to
an own branch or maybe even a repository if it still gets bigger.
Is there a way to achive this or is the only way to just copy the files
over and check into a new repository while loosing all history?
Thanks for reading
Oliver
