git-merge-repo - Man Page

• Merge a repository's branch into the current repository's directory: git merge-repo path/to/repo branch_name path/to/directory
• Merge a remote repository's branch into the current repository's directory, not preserving history: git merge-repo path/to/remote_repo branch_name .

tldr.sh

git-merge-repo <repo> <branch> <directory> [--squash]

Merges a repository´s history with the current repository, inside a specified directory.

Optional --squash flag skips the full history and generates only one commit for the merge.

Merges a local repo´s frontend branch into the current repo´s web folder:

$ git merge-repo ../app/.git frontend web

Merges a remote repo´s master branch into the current repo´s folder:

$ git merge-repo git@github.com:tj/git-extras.git master .
