Support for pushing initial code that doesn't pass CLA git hook
Summary
Pushing the initial git code to an Eclipse project (oniro repository) fails on the CLA git hook. This is because history contains contributions from authors that haven't signed an Eclipse CLA. The issue is regarding the people who are not in the team anymore but their contributions are still in the existing git repository.
Steps to reproduce
Push the dunfell branch from https://booting.oniroproject.org/distro/oniro/ to the Eclipse repository available at https://gitlab.eclipse.org/eclipse/oniro-core/oniro.
What is the current bug behaviour?
git push fails.
What is the expected correct behaviour?
We are looking for a way to bypass the check for the initial code contribution. Subsequent contributions will adhere to the CLA requirements.
