[git-users] git checkout from one directory to another
I need to checkout a copy of a folder into another temporary "scratch" folder. For example, I have a directory /myproject/junk I want to checkout a previous copy of "junk into "junk_temp" so I get /myproject/junk <- HEAD /myproject/junk_temp <- some other rev. I know I could just do a git checkout revision# -- junk , copy the folder using cp, and then check junk out back to what it was. I was hoping there is a little cleaner way of doing this that didn't involve checking out the folder in the event that folder had modifications. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
