Hello,

I am not sure what I am asking, so I thought I would start here.  If I
knew the name of this operation, I would look for it.  :)

I have also posted to the git-users google group, but signs there tell  
me this is the better place.

I have a software deployment that was copied out of a git repository
but without the .git directories.  Thus, I have no idea what revision
this deployment is, so I don't know how to upgrade from git.  Is there a
method, or script out there that can help me?

The trouble is, I should have made a branch or tag when I deployed it  
to at
least freeze that version.  At the very least so I can rebase and re-
deploy it again.  (I could be wrong about this last statement: I am  
definitely new to git)

I appreciate any assistance you all can give me...
