alt Hacker NewsInteresting. Anyone knows how this compares to using git submodules and subtrees?
I had used those to create separate repo for website artifacts while the same also remain plugged into the webapp dev repo. (Both sides remain modifiable and changes mergeable to the other side.)
Thx.
The main benefits you get are transformations. You can leverage tooling to automate include remapping and things like that.
But it's definitely not geared towards forks, but rather mirrors with deterministic and invertible transforms.
