I have a web application that explores other web applications in a particular way. It contains some web demos in a demos folder and one of the demo should now have it's own repository. I would like to create a separate repository for this demo application and make it a subpackage submodule from main repository without losing its commit history.

Is it possible to keep the commit history from the files in a repository's folder and create a repository from it and use it as a submodule instead?

git git-submodules revision-history
