Probably I am slower than my usual slow self this morning. Does Michael's
approach go like this:
git init project
cd project
import import import
git branch -m vendor
git checkout -b master
to fork from third-party codebase?
Or Michael had his own 'master' already and wanted an independent orphaned
history from vendor, perhaps like this?
git init project
cd project
work work work
git checkout --orphan vendor
: perhaps "git clean -f" here???
import import import
git checkout master
: rootless merge???
git merge vendor
