'Twas brillig, and Matthew Patterson at 25/10/09 23:40 did gyre and gimble:
Ok. I have done a LOT of cleanup on the code. Consolidated the numerous
config files, made the directory structure somewhat logical, etc. I also
converted to git using git-cvsimport without too much trouble.
So now I have the question, how to I push my repository up to gitorous
(already have an account) without including the entire history? I have
cleaned the current tree to not contain any passwords/etc, but previous
checkins definitely contained that sort of stuff.
It really seems like I should be able to push only the current code
snapshot and let things progress from there. That way I get to keep my
history and the server continues from here on out? Is git rebase what I
am looking for???
Rebase just reapplies the commits against a known starting point
(usually a branch).
If you just want to start with a clean slate, I'd just keep your git
repository for reference and do and export and import to get a fresh,
single commit "initial import" of your code. You'll always have your
history, but everyone else will start from a clean slate.
You should of course work from the new fresh repository too when making
future changes etc.
