title: Where is the Git Repository Path created?
body: <p>When one creates a NEW repository with Git, does the path where the .git subdir is added have to be the SAME one as the path where the project files are (i.e. the files to be managed by Git)?  Another way of asking the same question is: If I want to create a new Git repository, does the repository path always have to coincide with the respective project path, or can I create a repository directory in ANOTHER location and then have Git POINT to the project path?  For instance, if my Project is in "F:\My Projects\Mother Goose\Gerber\", could I create a Git Repository in say "F:\My Repositories\Pointer Path\Gerber\"? and then tell Git to look in "\My Projects\Mother Goose\Gerber\" for the files to be added to the repository?</p>
