Subject: Forcing git top-level
Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2015 11:25:58 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <0FD999DB-3DBF-40D4-8128-715BDC49EAAB@free.fr> (raw)


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
