git clone from another directory
git, git-clone
Solution
cd /d c:\
git clone C:\folder1 folder2
From the documentation for `git clone`:
For local repositories, also supported by git natively, the following syntaxes may be used:
/path/to/repo.git/
file:///path/to/repo.git/
These two syntaxes are mostly equivalent, except the former implies --local option.
Problem
I am trying to clone repo from another directory. Lets say I have one repo in `C:/folder1` and `C:/folder2` I want to clone the work in `folder1` into `folder2`. What would I type into the command prompt to do this? It seems that often when cloning a URL is provided rather then a file path, however, at this moment I am just practicing and trying to get use to Git.
