Hi all, Problem domain: 1. I have several files and subfolders I want to copy from one git repo to another, and make sure the git history is copied. 2. I MUCH prefer to use a GUI solution than CLI. My preferred GUI is Team Explorer with SourceTree as a secondary solution. I have seen a number of CLI-based solutions to do this, but I detests CLI and have stayed away from using the command line for the most part since GUIs came out over 30 years ago. Even with TortoiseGit installed, just copying files in the TortoiseGit menu doesn't copy the history to the local working branch. Any help would be appreciated.
