Just wondering, is the result different than something like git checkout commit_to_reparent cp -r * ../snapshot/ git reset --hard new_parent rm -r * cp -r ../snapshot/* . git add -A (assumes 1 parent, does not cope with .dot files, and has probably other small problems) -- Piotr Krukowiecki -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
