Hello,
I've been searching what's the best way to include a reference to a
subfolder/subdirectory from a (secondary) remote repo into a subfolder
of my (primary) repo.
Here I found some approaches:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/30386041/509369
Where the first 3 options don't seem to support sending changes back to
the mainstream; and the 4rth is replicating the whole repo.
Ideally:
- The reference is stored somewhere in the (primary) repo so when
someone clones it, the referenced folder (from the secondary repo) is
also cloned.
- You can pull changes from the remote repo into the subfolder of your repo.
- You can make changes to the subfolder directly from your (primary)
repo, and push them to the remote repo (of course depending on the
privileges of the remote repo).
- Allow multiple remote subfolders.
Extra: it could be more complex, but what about single remote files?
I'm not sure if this is possible with the current set of git tools, if
it can be added in a future or if it's just a no-sense question.
Thanks in advance!
