title: Is there anything like svn_load_dirs.pl for git?
body: <p>Sometimes we use third party code. But the repositories of these codes are not accessible to us, which means they are only released in a tarball. In such cases, svn_load_dirs.pl is a very handy script to commit such codes to a vendor branch and make fake history at out side. This will make merge easier.
  My question is that is there anything alike for git?</p>
