Hi, I have just moved host and my old git setup was to have a working repo on the server and then clone that working repo locally. I also run Wordpress and when I upload files through Wordpress this would add files to the live hosting that I would not have locally. To get this locally I would have to SSH into the server and git add -A and commit them, I would then fetch them locally.
-- I have done some reading up about the best way to migrate git repo's to new servers as I'd like to keep my history, naturally. I have read that the live server shouldn't have a working repo but a bare repo. That is fine by me, but then how do I SSH in and find the files ? The root on the server now contains foo.git and no files where as a working repo would contain a hidden .git and then foo.html, bar.html. I'm confused as to why you shouldn't use a working repo on the server and if you are to use a bare repo, how does example.com/foo.html get found ?
