It is sometimes necessary to have files in a container that shouldn't ever end up in an image. These files are generally some form of private key or password that aren't allowed to be distributed. This document details a few usecases for such files and their requirements.

# First of all you need to have a clean clone of the source repository so we didn't screw the things up. | |
git clone git://server.com/my-repo1.git | |
# After that you need to do some preparations on the source repository, nuking all the entries except the folder you need to move. Use the following command | |
git filter-branch --subdirectory-filter your_dir -- -- all | |
# This will nuke all the other entries and their history, creating a clean git repository that contains only data and history from the directory you need. If you need to move several folders, you have to collect them in a single directory using the git mv command. |
