Can you reorganize your tree so that you divide the > needed files into different subdirectories? No, that is unfortunately not so easy. If we could, I suppose we could use submodules instead. Are the subtree split and merge operations effective? I.e. how do they scale with the size of the original and reduced repositories? I.e. is it feasible to use hooks to automate the splitting and merging whenever there are changes in the original or reduced repositories?
