Hi, we're currently experimenting how to best convert kdebindings to git. One thing that we tried was 'git filter-branch --subdirectory-filter ruby -- -- all' to remove everything but the 'ruby' subdir and make this the top-level directory. The resulting directory structure looked good, but strangely the history of all other unrelated subdirs was left intact, even after git gc -- aggressive and git prune. So the resultung repository wasn't any smaller than the original monolithic kdebindings thing, even though there was only a small subdir left.
Is there anything to watch out for when using --subdirectory-filter? Or is it simply not possible to do this properly with the filter? -- Arno Rehn [email protected] _______________________________________________ Kde-scm-interest mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-scm-interest
