[PATCH 4/7] fast-export: Do parent rewriting to avoid dropping relevant commits

From: <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:46:58
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

From: Elijah Newren <redacted>

When specifying paths to export, parent rewriting must be turned on for
fast-export to output anything at all.

Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <redacted>

Try 'git fast-export master -- COPYING' in git.git and notice how there
is no output at all (whereas 'git rev-list master -- COPYING' does show
some existing revisions).  This simple patch restores the missing file
and commit in the fast-export output.
