@Ramizjon don't need to create a whole repo. You can probably achieve it
this way (first do "git fetch --all" to make sure you're up to date):
1: branch off of your master branch (the one with the Datadog changes) to a
new branch
2: do a soft reset far enough back that you can later fast-forward to the
latest apache master commit
3: commit just the changes you want to make (may need to do a "git reset
HEAD --hard" after committing your changes to get rid of any random changes you
don't want to commit)
4: do "git rebase origin/master".
This should fast forward your Datadog commit ahead of the latest of the
master branch. Also you may want to check out this documentation on how to
re-write history in Git[1]. If you get too messed up you can always use
"reflog" to rewind. Let me know if you have any questions.
Also I didn't realize I needed to explicitly create a dashboard, I thought
it would at least show a notification that I connected (especially when using
HTTP). I will re-test once we get everything squashed.
