Executing the command git clone git@github.com:whatever
creates a directory in my current folder named whatever, and drops the contents of the Git repository into that folder:
/httpdocs/whatever/public
My problem is that I need the contents of the Git repository cloned into my current directory so that they appear in the proper location for the web server:
/httpdocs/public
I know how to move the files after I've cloned the repository, but this seems to break Git, and I'd like to be able to update just by calling git pull
. How can I do this?
