You haven't stated what the repository structure of the original repository was. I suspect that Server/Web/Amagno.Server.Web.DocumentRecognition/
was not a directory tracked within git; perhaps you gave a path relative to your current working directory, and you weren't in the toplevel directory of the repository? What is the output of git ls-tree -rlt HEAD | grep ' tree '

If I now want to extract project 2, I have used the following command:
git filter-repo --subdirectory-filter Server/Web/Amagno.Server.Web.DocumentRecognition/
The history is still there, but when the script cleans up, everything is simply thrown away and only the .git folder is left in the main directory.
I would have thought that it would now look like this:
Have I misunderstood something fundamental or am I doing something wrong?
