I have the typical problem of splitting up one large repo into smaller ones, so I searched and came across this: http://gbayer.com/development/moving-files-from-one-git-repository-to-another-preserving-history/
git clone <git repository A url>
cd <git repository A directory>
git remote rm origin
git filter-branch --subdirectory-filter <directory 1> -- --all
mkdir <directory 1>
mv * <directory 1>
git add .
git commit
It would have worked for me, except that my clone is a shallow one. Since the repo is large, I had to clone with depth 0.
Now, what are my options?
Should I:
Even without cloning again, you can convert your current repo from shallow to "unshallow"
git fetch --unshallow
Then, you can proceed with your git filter-branch
