WARNING: Work in progress You can use `git subtree` to extract only one part of your repository, including its history. Here's a complete example on how to create new repositories from one repository with multiple directories. Your initial repository structure looks like: ``` myrepo ├── dir1 │   ├── myfile1 │   ├── myfile2 │   └── myfile3 ├── dir2 │   ├── myfile1 │   ├── myfile2 │   ├── myfile3 │   └── myfile4 └── dir3 └── myfile ``` On your computer, create empty repositories ``` mkdir /tmp/dir{1,2,3} cd /tmp/dir1; git init --bare cd /tmp/dir2; git init --bare cd /tmp/dir3; git init --bare ``` Go to the original repository and create one branch per directory you want to split ``` cd myrepo git subtree split --prefix=dir1 -b dir1 git subtree split --prefix=dir2 -b dir2 git subtree split --prefix=dir3 -b dir3 ``` Push the branch of the original repository to the new local repositories on a new master branch ``` git push /tmp/dir1 dir1:master git push /tmp/dir2 dir2:master git push /tmp/dir3 dir3:master ``` Create the repositories on c4science, set the remote on your local repository for each new repository and push the new repositories to c4science ``` cd /tmp/dir1; git remote add origin ssh://git@c4science.ch/diffusion/NNNN/; git push -u origin master cd /tmp/dir2; git remote add origin ssh://git@c4science.ch/diffusion/NNNN/; git push -u origin master cd /tmp/dir3; git remote add origin ssh://git@c4science.ch/diffusion/NNNN/; git push -u origin master ``` Deactivate the original repository on c4science and potentially [[/maniphest/task/edit/form/8/ | ask an administrator]] to remove the repository. Enjoy your new tinier repositories :-)
