Split a monolithic git repo into several small ones
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
"""
I used the following script to convert each subdirectory of work.git into its own git repo. The one exception was paper-2013.01.16_nea_collector which I did by hand using essentially the same method as below, except I skipped the part where I removed the tags. I used the procedure found at [1] and slightly modified it. I also used the solution in [2] to convert non-bare repos to bare. Note also that I first cloned work from its bare git repo on the SD card, removed the remote, and tarred the result to work.tar.
