Fixing Git Repositories

Example fixing git repo branching -- https://github.com/LuaDist/Repository/issues#issue/32 .

wget --no-check-certificate -P ~ https://github.com/git/git/raw/master/contrib/fast-import/import-tars.perl
sed -i 's,tar@example.com,,' ~/import-tars.perl # no author e-mail
mkdir lalarm && cd lalarm
# tarball names lack version, so do this
wget -P 4.0 http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/~lhf/ftp/lua/4.0/alarm.tar.gz
wget -P 5.0 http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/~lhf/ftp/lua/5.0/lalarm.tar.gz
wget -P 5.1 http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/~lhf/ftp/lua/5.1/lalarm.tar.gz
git init
GIT_AUTHOR_NAME="Luiz Henrique de Figueiredo" ~/import-tars.perl 4.0/alarm.tar.gz 5.0/lalarm.tar.gz 5.1/lalarm.tar.gz
git tag | xargs git tag -d # delete auto-created tags, which are poor due to tarball naming
git branch -m import-tars upstream
git checkout upstream
git checkout -b master
git clone git@github.com:LuaDist/lalarm.git ../lalarm-old
rm -fr *
cp -r ../lalarm-old/* .
git add -A
git commit --author="Peter Drahoš <...authors-email-here...>" -m "build: add CMakeLists.txt and related files"
gitk # review
git remote add gh git@github.com:LuaDist/lalarm.git
git push --all --force gh
git push gh :v5.1 # e.g. to delete a remote tag

Example fixing luaforge repos http://lua-users.org/lists/lua-l/2011-01/msg01234.html:

git clone https://github.com/luaforge/luazip.git
cd luazip
# remove all but given directory from all branches/tags
git filter-branch --subdirectory-filter luazip -- --all
# delete original refs backed up
git for-each-ref --format="%(refname)" refs/original/ | xargs -n 1 git update-ref -d
# cleanup tags
git tag v1.2.0 v1_2_0; git tag -d v1_2_0
git tag v1.2.1 v1_2_1; git tag -d v1_2_1
git tag v1.2.2 v1_2_2; git tag -d v1_2_2
git tag v1.2.3 v1_2_3; git tag -d v1_2_3
git tag --force v1.2.0 b23d94b01be67be8b822747ea246ef115795ea48
# fix cvs2svn manufactured commit to create tag
git remote add gh git@github.com:LuaDist/luazip.git
git push --force --all
git push --force --tags
