## The trick
|
||
|
||
In an ideal world there should never be a need to do this, but here is how to do it properly if you ever walk into this bizarre problem. This command imports commits from a repo in the `../masterfiles` folder and applies them to the repository inside the current folder :
|
||
{{< highlight sh >}}
|
||
(cd ../masterfiles/; git format-patch –stdout origin/master) | git am
|
||
{{< /highlight >}}
