Hi people.
I want to creat a git repo with two upstreams.
The first is the root of JointsWP (https://github.com/JeremyEnglert/JointsWP ) going straight to my root (repo /). No problem with this upstream-jointswp.
The second is the sub dir /templates of WooComerce ( https://github.com/woothemes/woocommerce). he content in this one should go directly into my subdir /woocommerce.
I was able to do a sparseCheckout to only catch the /templates subdir of the upstream(-woocommerce:/templates). Now I want to "mv or rename" the checked out /templates to /woocommerce. I want to keep full track of the commits done to /templates in the upstream-channel.
Or is the git-subtree the wrong way to go?

Thank you great folks.
PS: Sorry if this is the wrong place for my question. Got a headsup to try here. ;)
