Hello, I need some clarification on the local git repository path being
/local/path/to/computer
or
/local/path/to?
When I set up a new remote repository, the instructions are something like /local/path/to/computer$ git init > git add origin, etc.
However, when I /local/path/to/computer$ git clone https://bitbucket, the local repository is in /local/path/to/computer.
The difference is with a git origin the local path is /local/path/to. However with git clone the local path is /local/path/to/computer.
These 2 paths confuse the 2 options for pulling files from the remote repository.
Is there a best practice or better way to pull, so both options set the download to /local/path/to/computer.
I think this has really confused my learning process.
"git init" turns your current directory into a git repo
"git clone" creates a new directory named after the repo in your current directory and clones the repo there
