push existing subdirectory of a repo to another remote

Question

I have been pushing my entire project to a remote, but now I need to push a subdirectory within my project to a different remote. How can I do this?

Take a look at [Git Submodules](http://git-scm.com/book/en/Git-Tools-Submodules). — Sascha Wolf, Aug 14 '14 at 07:08

The two options are:

git submodules (to track the exact reference of a repo used by a subdir, using a special entry in the index of the main repo: a gitlink)
git subtree (to manage only one repo, even if a subdir can be pushed to another repo)
