# `git subtree-lite` `git subtree-lite` is a tool to manage modified versions of content imported from other git repositories. It's easier than git submodules and very similar to `git subtree --squash` but avoids some of the bugs. See the documentation at the top of the script for more information. As of 2016-11-30, I'm deprecating `git subtree-lite` in favor of [Braid](http://cristibalan.github.io/braid/), which is semantically equivalent in the default "squashed" mode but more mature. I see some potential problems in the way Braid operates, but they can be fixed as needed. The `git subtree-lite` code will remain available because it demonstrates some interesting techniques. ~ Matt McCutchen
