How to merge some specific project folder into an empty branch.

Hi all,

Currently i want to merge one project into another git branch. For example I
have a branch name A and there is a project called p1 under folder
projects/p1/. and i have a empty branch B. i just want to merge project
"projects/p1/" into my empty branch B. But I don't want to merge other
parts(for example projects/p2). Can anyone help me please? 

Thanks a lot.

OK,

I'm not sure if I understand your question clearly, but let's see if
the below will work for you:

# git remote add p1 ".../projects/p1"
# git fetch p1

And assume the branch you wanna merge in P1 is C

# git checkout B
# git merge p1/C

Yet I see no benefit of doing so with project p1 and p2 to be very different.
