LinuxQuestions.org - [SOLVED] set directory structure in git

Hi,

I've the following file structure that I would like to add to git.

Code:

/app

/app/src (100MB of size)

/app/books (200MB of size)

/app/apps (400MB of size)

These are big directories and I don't need them all checked out. I only need the src directory. After I commit the files in the /app/src, it must be pushed to a remote site.

If I want only to checkout the src directory to work on, it's important to create a special file structure in git? For example, instead of doing git init on app general directory, should I do git init on all subdirectories?

Is it possible to checkout only part of a file structure in git?
