Hi all

quote from core-tutorial:

Note
You could do without using any branches at all, by keeping as many local
repositories as you would like to have branches, and merging between
them with git pull, just like you merge between branches. The advantage
of this approach is that it lets you keep a set of files for each branch
checked out and you may find it easier to switch back and forth if you
juggle multiple lines of development simultaneously. Of course, you will
pay the price of more disk usage to hold multiple working trees, but
disk space is cheap these days.

I still can't realize how to  union 2 git repositories with linear
history, into 1 repo with 2 branches.
i try git-rebase, but results are unexpected.

i have 2 repos with history, assuming initial commit in both repos are
same:

1:
a-b-c-d-e-f
2:
a-B-C-D-E-F


i want repository with this history:

a-b-c-d-e-f
 \B-C-D-E-F


i try following:
1. copy objects from other repo :
git-fetch ../other/.git +master:otherMaster
history after this command is 2 unconnected chains:
a-b-c-d-e-f  a-B-C-D-E-F
2.Then i try following:
git-rebase --onto a f F

but results are strange
(git, complain about merge errors, history is like:

x-x-x-x-x-x-----------x
 \x-x-x    \x-x-x-x-x

)

can someone help me how to do this ?



Thanks in advance
