I've ported a SVN repo to GIT, but previously I have an svn:external file and it's not recognized in GIT. Is it possible to do external files like SVN where you have a single source of a file, but checked-out into other directories of the same repo?
For example:
- test/img/hello.gif (original file)
- test2/img/hello.gif (references the first file)
- test3/img/hello.gif (references the first file)
I've read some things around 'sparse-checkout' but not sure how you could actually just reference/check out one file.
