Hi,I've been hacking away on a library for quite some time and have a lot of commits in my private repository:A -> B -> C -> D -> EFinally, I'm nearing completion of a first version, and want to publish it to a remote called public from D onward keeping A..C to myself, so public should afterwards look like this:D -> EMy main motivation is that i don't really want to put ridiculously first trials online, but still (on demand) I'd like to be able to prove how i arrived at D (think of copyright claims, etc).As (at the moment) it's pretty much impossible to reverse-engineer the hashes of commits in the chain with times and changesets, i thought just keeping D's parent pointer to C would be one of the genius advantages of git. Sadly i can't find a way to actually make this work.Can i somehow push D -> E to public making it a fully functional public repository with all the necessary objects included to checkout D or E and D still pointing to C as parent? If not, why is that?
