Using manual from another repo to add to yours

The following steps will pick up the manual directory from oplaydo (a. k. a. Rasbats) to your own repo. In your own clone of dashboard_tactics_pi do:

$ git remote add oplaydo https://github.com/oplaydo/dashboard_tactics_pi.git $ git remote update oplaydo $ git checkout oplaydo/master manual $ git commit -m "Add manual directory from oplaydo - https://github.com/oplaydo/dashboard_tactics_pi.git"

The advantage of this approach, besides that it's simple, is that you will keep the git history and file permissions which are otherwise often lost in Windows.
