GIT: How to extract a specific folder from a git repository branch, including the folder's related git history only

NOTE: If you want to keep the history for a specific folder in the master branch, just skip steps in lines 3,4,5,6,7

git clone <git-repository-url>
cd <git-repository-dir>

git checkout <branch-name>              # line 3; Checkout the branch of interest
git merge --strategy=ours master        # line 4; keep the content of this branch only and record a merge
git checkout master                     # line 5; Go back to the master branch

Packaging

FreeBSD 10+ provides a new pkg(7) tool and a new efficient binary format for storing package info, with similar functionality to apt or yum in Linux distros.

Despite this, building custom packages on FreeBSD is a very simple task and we should use it as much as possible, both to set build -specific options, and to make our own private ports, instead of just relying on upstream packages and changes.

Bootstrapping Rust and Cargo on FreeBSD/aarch64

At the time of this writing, Rust and Cargo are available on FreeBSD/amd64 and FreeBSD/i386 only, whether it is from rustup or from the FreeBSD ports tree. Here is how I could bootstrap Rust and Cargo for FreeBSD/aarch64 from FreeBSD/amd64.

Base system for the target

To be able to cross-compile anything, you need a userland for the target.

Achieving warp speed with Rust

	Copy all the files to the build directory.
	Copy icudtl.dat to the build directory. (you can find it in the vscode downloads ex for linux).
	chromium version in port is 52.0.2743.116.
	This was built with FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE-p1. If building with other versions probably need to change
	the freebsd versions in diff files (ex. freebsd11 => freebsd10)
	Installed
	node => v6.9.1
	npm => 3.9.2

	>chmod 755 vscode_build.sh

	#!/bin/bash

	copyq_get_row(){
	local copyq_row="$(copyq read $1 \| head -1 \| sed -e 's/^[[:space:]]*//')"

	# clean from non compatible json char
	printf -v clean_copyq_row "%q" "$copyq_row"
	echo -n "$clean_copyq_row"
	}
