From: Cedric Gava Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2015 09:25:58 GMT Subject: Forcing git top-level Message-ID: <0FD999DB-3DBF-40D4-8128-715BDC49EAAB@free.fr> Hello I’ve copied a .git folder located at the root (/) of a filesystem, into another directory (/home/mydir). If I issue a git rev-parse —show-toplevel I got "/"... I would like to change the top-level to point to /home/mydir. I’ve also tried to bare clone the original .git folder, but the new git repo stills points it top-level to "/". Thank you for your answer Best regards Cedric
