Hi Mathieu, Thanks for taking this further. I wonder if there is some easy way of pruning down the repository as it seems crazy to be carrying the lots of baggage around for what should be a small little project and repository.
I guess the crude way would be to just copy the files across to a new repository and start from scratch with a new history for the osgQt files. We'll always have the osgQt in the OSG history which won't be pruned so perhaps this would be sufficient. Robert.
