Hello,
I have two repositories. tools and flof. I want to merge flof into tools (and
flof will be deleted after that) while keeping history intact. Of course I've
googled that and found a number of different solution which all seem to be
pretty komplex, so I just tried it myself. It seems to work.... are there any
problems with my approach?
~/software/tools.test (git)-[master] % git remote add fl ~/flof
~/software/tools.test (git)-[master] % git fetch fl

/software/tools.test (git)-[master] % git checkout -b import fl/master
Branch import set up to track remote branch master from fl.
Switched to a new branch 'import'
Doing some mkdir und git mv for reorganisation.
~/software/tools.test/flof (git)-[import] % git commit -m "Reorganize flof."
[import a00ab54] Reorganize flof.

~/software/tools.test/flof (git)-[import] % git checkout master
Switched to branch 'master'
~/software/tools.test (git)-[master] % git merge import
Auto-merging .gitignore
CONFLICT (add/add): Merge conflict in .gitignore
Automatic merge failed; fix conflicts and then commit the result.
Resolving the conflict.
~/software/tools.test (git)-[master|merge] % git add .gitignore
~/software/tools.test (git)-[master|merge] % git commit -m "Merged flof."
[master b8c85be] Merged flof.
~/software/tools.test (git)-[master] % git remote rm fl
Are thery any problems with this procedure? The history seems to intact. I'm
quite unsure since still being a git beginner.
Thanks,
Florian
