git-subwiz

Tool for easy adding/updating/removing subtrees in your project.

Installing

Copy script to directory for your local binaries specified in $PATH (for example, /usr/local/bin for linux-users and c:/cygwin/usr/local/bin for cygwin).

Check that the script is executable: chmod +x /usr/local/bin/git-subwiz

Preparing

Create or copy dependencies.txt in your repository. Add content with subtrees you want to add. It must be looked like:

<repository name> ; <repository url> ; <prefix>

For example, dependencies.txt with Sun and Moon configuration:

sun ;  ssh://git@github:7999/examples/sun.git  ; .externals
moon ;  ssh://git@github:7999/examples/moon.git ; .externals

When you run git subwiz import you`ll be able to find imported subtrees .externals/sun and .externals/moon.

Be careful to separate configuration items only with semicolon (;)!

Lines started with # are ignored (example: # this is comment line and it will be ignored).
