Git repository, restrict path based read access

I understand that by design Git is distributed and each clone is a copy of the repository's history, blobs, tree objects, etc. We have a case to restrict read access to some of the folders/files hosted in Git repositories. I believe Subgit has Something Similar. Just wondering if there are any opensource or paid solutions to achieve this.

Not on reading access.

Whenever you have that problematic, it is best to:

  • split the repo into two repositories
  • make the second one private
  • reference the second in the first a a submodule
