Using a subtree

Prerequisites - Existing local repo

# in der bash 
cd .. 
cp -a training training-neu 
cd training-neu

Walkthrough

# -f is needed because commits are different from main project 
git remote add -f training-git https://github.com/jmetzger/training-git.git
git status 
git subtree add --prefix training-git training-git main --squash

Updating

git fetch training-git main
git subtree pull --prefix training-git training-git main --squash

Push

git subtree push --prefix=training-git training-git main
