Hi
I'm trying to use git filter-branch to move all contents of a repo
into a subdirectory of the repo root. The git filter-branch man page
has the following example:
To move the whole tree into a subdirectory, or remove it from there:
git filter-branch --index-filter \
'git ls-files -s | sed "s-\t\"*-&newsubdir/-" |
GIT_INDEX_FILE=$GIT_INDEX_FILE.new \
git update-index --index-info &&
mv $GIT_INDEX_FILE.new $GIT_INDEX_FILE' HEAD
So I've been trying to use this, the original structure of the repo is:
$ ls
00boot SFTdumpall.c debian
Makefile.am SFTdumpheader.c ligodcc.cls
README SFTvalidate.c pdfdraftcopy.sty
SCCB_2004_09_09 SFTwrite.c run_validate.sh
SFTReferenceLibrary.c T040164.tex sftreferencelibrary-2.2.tar.gz
SFTReferenceLibrary.h configure.in sftreferencelibrary-2.3.tar.gz
$
and I want all this in a subdirectory call "sftlib", so using the
example from the manpage I ran:
$ git filter-branch --index-filter \
'git ls-files -s | sed "s-\t\"*-&sftlib/-" |
GIT_INDEX_FILE=$GIT_INDEX_FILE.new \
git update-index --index-info &&
mv $GIT_INDEX_FILE.new $GIT_INDEX_FILE' HEAD

$
now the directory structure is:
$ ls
Makefile.am SCCB_2004_09_09 SFTReferenceLibrary.h
SFTdumpheader.c SFTwritsftlib configure.in ligodcc.cls
run_validatsftlib
README SFTReferenceLibrary.c SFTdumpall.c
SFTvalidatsftlib T040164.tsftlib debian pdfdraftsftlib
sftsftlib
$
which is clearly not what I'm wanting. What I am doing wrong here? As
far as I can I'm using the example from the man-page?
Cheers
