GitSplit Component
==================

[](#gitsplit-component)

The GitSplit component provides commands to split a monorepo using the [splitsh-lite](https://github.com/splitsh/lite)script and other tools.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

The first implementation of GitSplit is DevShop itself. Look to OpenDevShop's code for a usage example:

1. Add the package to your project's `composer.json`:

    ```
    composer require devshop/git-split --dev

    ```

    See
2. Import a legacy repo into a subfolder:

    If a component repo already exists, you can merge it in with the git subtree command:

    ```
    git subtree add --prefix=$PATH_IN_REPO $GIT_URL $BRANCH

    ```

    For example, when we merged in the "devmaster" install profile from Drupal.org:

    ```
    git subtree add --prefix=devmaster https://git.drupalcode.org/project/devmaster.git 7.x-1.x

    ```

    See
3. Add `extra.git-splits`

    Add the Secondary Repository information to the config.git-split.repos section of the main devshop/composer.json file.

    ```
    "extra": {
        "git-split": {
            "repos": {
                "devmaster": "git@github.com:opendevshop/devmaster.git"
            }
        }
    }
    ```
4. Run the command `composer git:split` every time there is new code.

    See the DevShop GitHub Action "git.yml" file for an example on running `composer git:split` to push code to multiple remotes, including different github organizations and drupal.org using SSH keys:
