Subject: git checkout in a subdirectory
Message-ID: <1301856793041-6236473.post@n2.nabble.com>

Hi all

I have recently converted my svn repository to git repository (A) but I did
not convert the svn branches , here is my problem :

One of my svn branches is a branch of a subdirectory , I have converted that
to a separate git repo (B) and
created a git branch from that in the (A) git repo but the problem is that I
can't checkout that branch in the corresponding subdirectory of my git repo
(A) ...

my git repo (A) looks something like this :

----------------------------------------------------------------------
git-repo
    |-- dir1
    |-- dir2
    |-- dir3 -- dir31

here's what I have done :
    cd /tmp
    git svn clone   B
    git clone --bare /tmp/B   B
    cd git-repo
    git remote add remote-git-branch B
    git fetch remote-git-branch
    git branch git-branch remotes/remote-git-branch

I want to do the git checkout in for example dir31 directory :

    cd dir3/dir31
    git checkout git-branch
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

How can I solve this problem ?
I've checked all 'git checkout' options but couldn't find anything ...

Thanks in advance

Alenoosh
