如何将新项目添加为提交而不是旧项目而不丢失历史记录？

Question

I use Intellij to upload projects on Github, is it possible to upload a new project as an old commit? Of course, I don't want to lose the history of the old project.

Answer 1

Yes it is possible.

All you have to do is delete all files of old project and copy paste the files of new project inside the project folder. I hope you don't have to change this project folder name. But make sure you don't delete .git folder inside your project folder. It's a hidden folder. Rest all you can delete.

After that just commit this big change and a new project will be pushed over the old project in the repository as a commit.

I hope you know how to commit.
