title: Can I move a local Git repository to elsewhere within my hard drive safely?
body: <p>I started using Git/SourceTree/Bitbucket lately. Can I move a local Git repository to elsewhere within my hard drive safely?</p>
  
  <p>Because some of the large files are ignored by Git, I cannot really pull the repository from a remote repository to get the exact copy of all the files.</p>
  
  <p>If I simply move or copy the home directory that contains .git to elsewhere, would it cause any mess to Git? If the absolute paths matters to Git, I guess it would, but I'm not sure.</p>
