I don't have a way to test it. git clone R1 somewhere new. In the new working directory, do a git branch -D on all branches other than b1 & b2. So the new working directory now only has b1 & b2 in it. Do a git remote add for the R2 directory. Now do a git pull from R2. The working directory, I think, would now have all of R2 plus b1 & b2 from R1. Do a git push --all R2 to update R2. -- Schrodinger's backup: The condition of any backup is unknown until a restore is attempted. Yoda of Borg, we are. Futile, resistance is, yes.
