What would be the advantage in doing that? Git is designed so that you have all your history available, and saves data in such a way that it really doesn't take much space. How would git be able to perform a merge from one branch to another if it didn't have this history available? That said, you could probably chop off the history you don't want by doing tricks with grafting, and rewriting all your history, but this would likely use more disk space because your branches wouldn't have anything in common, and also make it very difficult to merge in the future. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
