Unlike submodules, subtrees do not need any special constructions (like .gitmodule files or gitlinks) be present in your repository, and do not force end-users of your repository to do anything special or to understand how subtrees work. A subtree is just a subdirectory that can be committed to, branched, and merged along with your project in any way you want.</simpara> <simpara>They are also not to be confused with using the subtree merge strategy. The main difference is that, besides merging the other project as a subdirectory, you can also extract the entire history of a subdirectory from your project and make it into a standalone project. Unlike the subtree merge strategy you can alternate back and forth between these two operations. If the standalone library gets updated, you can automatically merge the changes into your project; if you update the library inside your project, you can "split" the changes back out again and merge them back into the library project.</simpara> <simpara>For example, if a library you made for one application ends up being useful elsewhere, you can extract its entire history and publish that as its own git repository, without accidentally intermingling the history of your application project.</simpara> <tip><simpara>In order to keep your commit messages clean, we recommend that people split their commits between the subtrees and the main project as much as possible. That is, if you make a change that affects both the library and the main application, commit it in two pieces. That way, when you split the library commits out later, their descriptions will still make sense. But if this isn’t important to you, it’s not <emphasis role="strong">necessary</emphasis>. git subtree will simply leave out the non-library-related parts of the commit when it splits it out into the subproject later.</simpara></tip> </refsect1> <refsect1 id="_commands"> <title>COMMANDS</title> <variablelist> <varlistentry> <term> add </term> <listitem> <simpara> Create the <prefix> subtree by importing its contents from the given <refspec> or <repository> and remote <refspec>. A new commit is created automatically, joining the imported project’s history with your own. With <emphasis>--squash</emphasis>, imports only a single commit from the subproject, rather than its entire history. </simpara> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term> merge </term> <listitem> <simpara> Merge recent changes up to <commit> into the <prefix> subtree. As with normal <emphasis>git merge</emphasis>, this doesn’t remove your own local changes; it just merges those changes into the latest <commit>. With <emphasis>--squash</emphasis>, creates only one commit that contains all the changes, rather than merging in the entire history. </simpara> <literallayout class="monospaced">If you use '--squash', the merge direction doesn't always have to be forward; you can use this command to go back in time from v2.5 to v2.4, for example. If your merge introduces a conflict, you can resolve it in the usual ways.</literallayout> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term> pull </term> <listitem> <simpara> Exactly like <emphasis>merge</emphasis>, but parallels <emphasis>git pull</emphasis> in that it fetches the given commit from the specified remote repository. </simpara> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term> push </term> <listitem> <simpara> Does a <emphasis>split</emphasis> (see below) using the <prefix> supplied and then does a <emphasis>git push</emphasis> to push the result to the repository and refspec. This can be used to push your subtree to different branches of the remote repository. </simpara> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term> split </term> <listitem> <simpara> Extract a new, synthetic project history from the history of the <prefix> subtree. The new history includes only the commits (including merges) that affected <prefix>, and each of those commits now has the contents of <prefix> at the root of the project instead of in a subdirectory. Thus, the newly created history is suitable for export as a separate git repository. </simpara> <literallayout class="monospaced">After splitting successfully, a single commit id is printed to stdout. This corresponds to the HEAD of the newly created tree, which you can manipulate however you want.</literallayout> <literallayout class="monospaced">Repeated splits of exactly the same history are guaranteed to be identical (ie. to produce the same commit ids). Because of this, if you add new commits and then re-split, the new commits will be attached as commits on top of the history you generated last time, so 'git merge' and friends will work as expected.</literallayout> <literallayout class="monospaced">Note that if you use '--squash' when you merge, you should usually not just '--rejoin' when you split.</literallayout> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </refsect1> <refsect1 id="_options"> <title>OPTIONS</title> <variablelist> <varlistentry> <term> -q </term> <term> --quiet </term> <listitem> <simpara> Suppress unnecessary output messages on stderr. </simpara> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term> -d </term> <term> --debug </term> <listitem> <simpara> Produce even more unnecessary output messages on stderr. </simpara> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term> -P <prefix> </term> <term> --prefix=<prefix> </term> <listitem> <simpara> Specify the path in the repository to the subtree you want to manipulate.

People rarely want to see every change that happened between v1.0 and v1.1 of the library they're using, since none of the interim versions were ever included in their application.</literallayout> <literallayout class="monospaced">Using '--squash' also helps avoid problems when the same subproject is included multiple times in the same project, or is removed and then re-added. In such a case, it doesn't make sense to combine the histories anyway, since it's unclear which part of the history belongs to which subtree.</literallayout> <literallayout class="monospaced">Furthermore, with '--squash', you can switch back and forth between different versions of a subtree, rather than strictly forward. 'git subtree merge --squash' always adjusts the subtree to match the exactly specified commit, even if getting to that commit would require undoing some changes that were added earlier.</literallayout> <literallayout class="monospaced">Whether or not you use '--squash', changes made in your local repository remain intact and can be later split and send upstream to the subproject.</literallayout> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </refsect1> <refsect1 id="_options_for_split"> <title>OPTIONS FOR split</title> <variablelist> <varlistentry> <term> --annotate=<annotation> </term> <listitem> <simpara> This option is only valid for the split command. </simpara> <literallayout class="monospaced">When generating synthetic history, add <annotation> as a prefix to each commit message. Since we're creating new commits with the same commit message, but possibly different content, from the original commits, this can help to differentiate them and avoid confusion.</literallayout> <literallayout class="monospaced">Whenever you split, you need to use the same <annotation>, or else you don't have a guarantee that the new re-created history will be identical to the old one. That will prevent merging from working correctly. git subtree tries to make it work anyway, particularly if you use --rejoin, but it may not always be effective.</literallayout> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term> -b <branch> </term> <term> --branch=<branch> </term> <listitem> <simpara> This option is only valid for the split command. </simpara> <literallayout class="monospaced">After generating the synthetic history, create a new branch called <branch> that contains the new history. This is suitable for immediate pushing upstream. <branch> must not already exist.</literallayout> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term> --ignore-joins </term> <listitem> <simpara> This option is only valid for the split command. </simpara> <literallayout class="monospaced">If you use '--rejoin', git subtree attempts to optimize its history reconstruction to generate only the new commits since the last '--rejoin'. '--ignore-join' disables this behaviour, forcing it to regenerate the entire history. In a large project, this can take a long time.</literallayout> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term> --onto=<onto> </term> <listitem> <simpara> This option is only valid for the split command. </simpara> <literallayout class="monospaced">If your subtree was originally imported using something other than git subtree, its history may not match what git subtree is expecting. In that case, you can specify the commit id <onto> that corresponds to the first revision of the subproject's history that was imported into your project, and git subtree will attempt to build its history from there.</literallayout> <literallayout class="monospaced">If you used 'git subtree add', you should never need this option.</literallayout> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term> --rejoin </term> <listitem> <simpara> This option is only valid for the split command. </simpara> <literallayout class="monospaced">After splitting, merge the newly created synthetic history back into your main project. That way, future splits can search only the part of history that has been added since the most recent --rejoin.</literallayout> <literallayout class="monospaced">If your split commits end up merged into the upstream subproject, and then you want to get the latest upstream version, this will allow git's merge algorithm to more intelligently avoid conflicts (since it knows these synthetic commits are already part of the upstream repository).</literallayout> <literallayout class="monospaced">Unfortunately, using this option results in 'git log' showing an extra copy of every new commit that was created (the original, and the synthetic one).</literallayout> <literallayout class="monospaced">If you do all your merges with '--squash', don't use '--rejoin' when you split, because you don't want the subproject's history to be part of your project anyway.</literallayout> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </refsect1> <refsect1 id="_example_1_add_command"> <title>EXAMPLE 1.
