Hello folks, I think I might've found a bug in git-subtree: I have a repository containing a directory "foo". I'd like to use its code in other projects, so I want to split it off into its own repository with git-subtree. But it doesn't work as it should. I found out that long ago, my repository contained an unrelated directory also called "foo" which has since been deleted. Steps to reproduce (after installing git-subtree from contrib): git init repo cd repo mkdir foo; touch foo/v1 git add -A .; git commit -m v1 rm -rf foo; touch v2 git add -A .; git commit -m v2 mkdir foo; touch foo/v3 git add -A .; git commit -m v3 git subtree split -P foo -b splitfoo --annotate="split " What should happen: Either (A) splitfoo only contains "split v3", or (B) splitfoo contains "split v1" and "split v3" What happens instead: The parent of "split v3" is "v2", so splitfoo's full history is: "v1" -> "v2" -> "split v3". Git version: 1.7.12.2 Bonus questions: - which is the intended behavior, (A) or (B)? - if it's (B), how do I convince git-subtree to do (A) once this bug gets fixed? (I might be getting too far ahead of myself here...)
