How to copy one repo entirely to another repo with history.
I don't want to use fork or mirroring options, I tried out branch-filter options but it is limited to one directory. git filter-branch --subdirectory-filter /../RepoA/dire1
I was referring below url https://medium.com/@ayushya/move-directory-from-one-repository-to-another-preserving-git-history-d210fa049d4b/
Example: Source Target Requirement ------ ---- ------------------- RepoA RepoB(new Repo) Copy entire history - Dir1 - Dir1 - Dir2 - Dir2
Could you please suggest?
You can try using the --index-filter
instead of the --subdirectory-filter
.
$ git filter-branch --index-filter \
'git ls-files -s | sed "s#\t#&RepoA/#" |
GIT_INDEX_FILE=$GIT_INDEX_FILE.new \
git update-index --index-info &&
mv $GIT_INDEX_FILE.new $GIT_INDEX_FILE' HEAD
Please checkout this thread for more information.
If RepoB is a fresh new repo. Yon can also try below commands. Clone RepoA to local machine, remove the remote origin of RepoA, then add the remote url to RepoB. see below example:
git clone http:/url/repoA
cd repoA
git pull origin branchName
git remote remove origin
git remote add origin http:/url/repoB
git push -u origin --all
You can also try using git submodule. Check the git document for more information.
