Wrong, it's a git option, i.e., you'd use something like git --git-dir some_git_command ...

But you do NOT need it at all. Don't use it, it's a bit advanced. Just change into the right directory before using any git command.

Forget it, http://www.google.com/search?q=man+mv is what I use instead. It's fast enough for me.

You did git clone git://github.com/grails/grails-core.git so I'd suppose you could move it using mv grails-core c:/grails Do not use "\" as it's an escape character, you'd need to double it. But use anything you like for moving it.
