Git commands to create a new server repo from a subdir

Create clone of your project in .git file

$ cd my_project
my_project$ cd ..
$ git clone --bare my_project my_project.git
$ copy my_project.git -> server
$ delete my_project
$ git clone file:////mpc/git/my_project.git
$ git remote -v
origin  file:////mpc/git/my_project.git (fetch)
origin  file:////mpc/git/my_project.git (push)

Now new my_project directory is a clone of your server .git project.

Carve off sub from my_project

Taken from here.

Working on this tree:

my_project
├── sub

Want to carve sub directory out of subtree.

A. Create branch sub-only that only has git commands for sub directory.

my_project$ git subtree split -P sub -b sub-only
Created branch 'sub-only'
ab1f70045edfab1d8b4190ce800d24ee17cf855d

B. Create new location for new sub project & pull the code into it from the local disk.

my_project$ cd ..
$ md sub
$ cd sub
$ git init
$ git pull /my_project sub-only

C. Create clone of the project and copy to server.

 $ cd sub
 sub$ cd ..
 $ git clone --bare sub sub.git
 $ copy sub.git -> server

D. Delete project from disk and the clone from the remote server.

 $ delete sub
 $ git clone file:////mpc/git/sub.git
 $ cd sub
 sub$ git remote -v
 origin  file:////mpc/git/sub.git (fetch)
 origin  file:////mpc/git/sub.git (push)

Add sub-module

Taken from here.

Now that we have separated out the sub-module as it's own project we now want to put it back into the tree.

A. Clear the sub project from the my_project tree

$ cd my_project
my_project$ del sub
my_project$ git add *
my_project$ git commit

B. Put the sub module into the tree

$ cd my_project
my_project$ git submodule add file:////mpc/git/sub.git sub
git add sub
git commit

C. Initialize and prep the submodule

my_project$ git submodule init
my_project$ git submodule update
