翻译强力驱动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.
cd /d c:\ git clone C:\folder1 folder2From 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.
None of these worked for me. I am using git-bash on windows. Found out the problem was with my file path formatting.
WRONG:
git clone F:\DEV\MY_REPO\.gitCORRECT:
git clone /F/DEV/MY_REPO/.gitThese commands are done from the folder you want the repo folder to appear in.
It's as easy as it looks.

See the URLS section below for more information on specifying repositories. The name of a new directory to clone into. The "humanish" part of the source repository is used if no directory is explicitly given (repo for /path/to/repo.git and foo for host.xz:foo/.git). Cloning into an existing directory is only allowed if the directory is empty. It is worth mentioning that the command works similarly on Linux:
