llvm dev - Feb 2020 - Need advice on migrating from GitHub/llvm-mirror

Hello.

I'm developing a LLVM based project and I'm using a fork of LLVM and
Clang
repos from https://github.com/llvm-mirror . The workflow was merging my
work with release_XX branches from these repos, so now I have my commits
interspersed with upstream ones.

I'd be grateful for any advice on how should I move my work towards
official git monorepo. I want to preserve my history, of course.

Thanks in advance.

Try this:
https://llvm.org/docs/Proposals/GitHubMove.html#moving-local-branches-to-the-monorepo

There are plenty of folks around who were able to successfully use this 
machinery for their downstream migration.

Feel free to come back if it does not help you :)

regards,
   Fedor.
