- Trim a subdirectory of a repository into its own repository.

   1. Clone a copy of the existing code.

      git clone ~/workspace/code/linuxppc_2_4

   2. cd into it, and remove all the other code. In this case, we want to keep util and blow away the rest.

      git filter-branch --subdirectory-filter util -- --all

   3. Now that all we want is the master branch from our original, export it:

      git-fast-export master > ../import

   4. Make your new repository directory and run

      git init

      on it.
   5. Import the exported branch into it:

      cat ../import | git-fast-import

   6. Reset the branch to a reasonable state

      git reset --hard
