    <p>We are currently in the process of moving our Magento Enterprise (an e-commerce web application) files into Git. The httpdocs/.gitignore file contains, among other things:</p> <pre><code>app/design/frontend/company/website/ skin/frontend/company/website/ </code></pre> <p>After initializing, committing and pushing httpdocs/, our first Git repository was successfully created. We now want to put both of the aforementioned directories into their own, separate repository. (Together, in a single repository!) The problem we run into here is that these directories share a common root that already contains our first Git repository; that is: httpdocs/</p> <p>I've read it is possible with the submodule functionality to embed other repositories within subdirectories of existing trees. However, the documentation at for example <a href="https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/GitSubmoduleTutorial" rel="nofollow">kernel.org</a> and <a href="http://book.git-scm.com/5_submodules.html" rel="nofollow">git-scm.com</a> seems so complicated that it makes me wonder whether this is really the way to go forward. All we need is two separate repositories, they just happen to have the same root.</p> <p>Another possible solution I've read about might be to initialize from app/design/frontend/company/website/ and add skin/frontend/company/website/ as a graft point in order to join these directories together. However, again, this seems overly complicated, and intended rather to be used when moving from another revision control system to Git.</p>

    1. COyou cannot have two repositories with the same root dir. i guess using a submodule would be the only option

    2. COsuggest you read git best practices first but if you indeed need two separate repos then create two folders and just symlink them to targets

    3. COAnton, thank you for the symlink suggestion, it's what we'll go forward with.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
