Protect Gitignored but Tracked Files

Split an Ansible Git Repo and Retain the Commit History
Starting with a jumbled git repo of various Ansible roles, playbooks, inventories, group_vars, etc. I want to create a new repo out of a selection of the subdirectories and retain the commit history. I have an ansible-test repo with a tree that looks roughly like this: . ├── adhoc/ │ ├── rolling-reboot.yml │ └── scripts/ ├── README.md └── runtime/ ├── roles/ │ ├── foo-role/ │ └── zimbra/ │ ├── ansible.cfg │ ├── hosts │ ├── tasks/ │ └── .
