Make repo subrepoable #8

Hmm it's a bit of a problem since I moved them into a specific directory a few months ago: 5aa9fa8 I'll have to check with the Package team as well, I know I want to make this a package, but I don't know don't know what should be the directory pattern for that. |

Also, instead of moving all the files, it's possible to do a sparse checkout: |

Unfortunately sparse checkouts wouldn't be maintained for subrepos. The problem isn't with what directories get checked out, but instead from the need to check out at the root, which precludes a larger Unity project from being version controlled. If you need to have a separate folder structure for packages, then a good solution is to have a separate repo that subrepos this one (or vice versa) and imports it at a specific location (i.e. if graph-visualizer is subrepo, then graph-visualizer-project would import it at Assets/GraphVisualizer). You'd be back to having what you have now while still allowing other projects to subrepo. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I don't think it's needed now to precise "https", it's fairly common now, and users will copy/paste the line anyway.

Should be good now |
I moved the files to the root and updated the README with instructions on how to clone directly into a project. This is what we did for EditorVR and AutoLOD. I'm looking to make use of the graph visualizer for another project, but will need to subrepo it, so I figured I'd offer this back.
