 For disk space and usability reasons, a separate repository might be easier to handle, especially when you can just add that to sources.conf. Note we already have contrib/ and users/ as separate repositories.
+
+Given your Git repository, you can use `git filter-branch(1)` to remove all history but that in a subdirectory. Note that you should do this on a copy of your repository. For example, to split www from the rest of the repository, use
+
+{{{
+git filter-branch --subdirectory-filter www --prune-empty -- --all
+}}}
