Very complex rebasing - Need help
So, I grabbed a tarball of the Buildroot project a year ago and started a git repo, and created a branch and did changes:
initial---master
\
--o--o--o--o--myprojectA few months later, I grabbed another Buildroot tarball and I diffed it from my master and applied it to master.
initial--o--(new tarball)--master
\
--o--o--o--o--myprojectWhich I then merged into myproject and did some additional development.
initial--o--(new tarball)--o--master
\ \
--o--o--o--o--o----o--o--o--o--myprojectMy problem is that I would like to bring in the svn-into-git repo of the Buildroot project.
initial--ID1--(new tarball)--ID2--master
\ \
--o--o--o--o--o-----o--o--o--o--myprojectother repo of the Buildroot project:
initial--o--o--ID3--o--o--ID4--o--master
So, I can actually match ID1=ID3 and ID2= ID4.
I can use rebase to do this:
In the Buildroot repo:
initial--o--o--ID3--o--o--ID4--o--master
\
--o--o--o--o--o--o--o--o--myprojectMy problem is that I need to kinda-rebase the ID4 into the myproject branch to make it finally look like this:
initial--o--o--ID3--o--o--ID4--o--master
\ \
--o--o--o--o--o--o--o--o--myprojectAny ideas ?
