git subrepo

Merge sub git repo into sub-directory in a parent git dir with git-submerge. git-subrepo reads config from ".gitsubrepo" resides in the root of parent git working dir.

Usage

Configure file ".gitsubrepo" syntax:

    # set base of remote url to "https://github.com/"
    [ remote: https://github.com/ ]


    # set base of local dir to "plugin"
    [ base: plugin ]


    # <local dir>   <remote uri>            <ref to fetch>    [<dir>]
    gutter          airblade/vim-gitgutter  master            src


    # if <remote uri> ends with "/", <local dir> will be added after "/"
    ansible-vim     DavidWittman/           master


    # change base to "root"
    [ base: ]


    # use a specific commit 1a2b3c4
    ultisnips       SirVer/                 1a2b3c4


    # add a sub-directory
    ultisnips       SirVer/                 1a2b3c4           src

• fetch master of https://github.com/airblade/vim-gitgutter and put it in: /plugin/gutter
