Hi all I have recently converted my svn repository to git repository (A) but I did not convert the svn branches , here is my problem : One of my svn branches is a branch of a subdirectory , I have converted that to a separate git repo (B) and created a git branch from that in the (A) git repo but the problem is that I can't checkout that branch in the corresponding subdirectory of my git repo (A) ... my git repo (A) looks something like this : ---------------------------------------------------------------------- git-repo |-- dir1 |-- dir2 |-- dir3 -- dir31 here's what I have done : cd /tmp git svn clone B git clone --bare /tmp/B B cd git-repo git remote add remote-git-branch B git fetch remote-git-branch git branch git-branch remotes/remote-git-branch I want to do the git checkout in for example dir31 directory : cd dir3/dir31 git checkout git-branch ----------------------------------------------------------------------- How can I solve this problem ? I've checked all 'git checkout' options but couldn't find anything ...
