git-merge-repo – Merge two repo histories

Synopsis

git-merge-repo <repo> <branch> <directory> [–squash]

Merges a repository’s history with the current repository, inside a specified directory.

Optional –squash flag skips the full history and generates only one commit for the merge.

Merges a local repo’s frontend branch into the current repo’s web folder:

$ git merge-repo ../app/.git frontend web

Merges a remote repo’s master branch into the current repo’s folder:

$ git merge-repo git [at] github.com:tj/git-extras.git master .
