Not quite. He wants to take one subdirectory from one repository and wants to 
move it to another repository AND keep the history.

So indeed first split the directories history from the first repo and than 
integrate it into the new one.

Btw. the directory was renamed from kipi-plugins to mediawiki in the last 3
