This worked fine. However, I'm getting into trouble with branches... My basic rules for the pre-project-merge history look like this: match /trunk/KDE/kdevelop/projectmanagers/qmake/ repository kdev-qmake branch master prefix qmake/ end match match /trunk/KDE/kdevelop/projectbuilders/qmakebuilder/ repository kdev-qmake branch master prefix qmakebuilder/ end match Now, there is a branch of qmake alone, also made before qmakebuilder got moved into qmake: match /branches/work/kdevelop-qmake-duchain/ repository kdev-qmake branch duchain prefix qmake/ end match This works great for the qmake directory; however, the first git commit to the duchain branch deletes everything from qmakebuilder. I can't figure out how to get the qmakebuilder files to keep appearing in the duchain branch unmodified. But now I'm also wondering if that's desirable. Should 'qmakebuilder' appear in the branch or not? You could argue that it shouldn't, since the branch was only for the 'qmake' directory. I just think it looks weird to have all of qmakebuilder deleted at the beginning of the branch... -- Nicolas (I read mailing lists through Gmane.
