short version: I think I managed to extract exactly what we wanted: https://github.com/hboutemy/maven-build-cache-extension-shallow-filtered please review and confirm the result is ok
longer version: how was it done? the first recipe I found is to drop old history: git clone https://github.com/hboutemy/maven-build-cache-extension.git shallow --shallow-since=2021-10-18 cd shallow git filter-branch -- --all you can see the intermediate result in https://github.com/hboutemy/maven-build-cache-extension-shallow then I just filtered with "git filter-repo" to remove globally many files that were removed in https://github.com/hboutemy/maven-build-cache-extension-shallow/commit/a323d9859f091cdd8a2b946c71d12228ec29b70c Regards, Hervé Le dimanche 19 décembre 2021, 22:56:56 CET Hervé BOUTEMY a écrit : > I've tried to use git filter-repo, excluding unwanted directories or > extensions > > here is a sample result: > https://github.com/hboutemy/maven-build-cache-extension-filtered > = 4200 commits > > instead of initial 11700 > https://github.com/hboutemy/maven-build-cache-extension > > we can still improve the list of directories to exclude > > before taking time for that, I need feedback: what do you think about this > approach? > > Regards, > > Hervé > > Le vendredi 17 décembre 2021, 11:47:25 CET Guillaume Nodet a écrit : > > I've tried various things without any good results. > > Given there's not much history to preserve here, I'd go ahead and just > > create a new repo with the current contents of the branch. > > Any objections? > > > > Le dim. 12 déc. 2021 à 15:43, Jeff Jensen > > <jeffjen...@upstairstechnology.com> > > > > a écrit : > > > I've split git repos before and using filter-branch is the key to keep > > > the > > > desired and purge the rest. > > > > > > From my notes, these two posts helped me: > > > * > > > > > > https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/using-git/splitting-a-subfolder-o > > > ut > > > -into-a-new-repository * > > > > > > https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/split-a-repository-in > > > -t > > > wo/ > > > > > > These are my shortcut notes for doing so, hope they are clear enough for > > > you and help.
