Say that I have a repository at /some/dir, and a tree that contains
most of its files at /another/dir (the second is a build directory,
made with `git archive', so some files removed due to export-ignore
attributes and some built files are present).
Is there a convenient way to make /some/dir usable as a repository?
Two things that I tried are
git --work-tree=/another/dir reset --hard master
which one time, but then failed with "fatal: unable to read tree...",
and another is
cp -a /some/dir/.git /another/dir
cd /another/dir
git reset --hard master
which looks like it can suffer from the same problem.
(It would be especially nice if there's a way to have only different
files touched in /another/dir.)
