Subject: [Bioc-devel]  git transition: unrelated histories
In-Reply-To: <314B57C8-E2BD-471C-A202-8C4CFAA3D5AD@roswellpark.org>

Hi,
I am trying to make the git transition from our RnBeads package. Unfortunately I am not able to merge from our current github?s master branch (which had been existing since SVN times) to the BioC master branch due to unrelated history:
?refusing to merge unrelated histories?
I would like to keep syncing both to our github and to BioC. I tried the ?--allow-unrelated-histories? option, but it did not really work: after resolving a bunch of merge conflicts, pulling again from the BioC git and resolving merge conflicts again, I am able to push to BioC. However, if I then want to merge from another branch of our github, I get unrelated histories again.
Has anyone else had this issue and knows how to resolve this best?

Best regards,
Fabian
