Re: How to have multiple working copy directories use the same repository?

[Sergio <sergio.callegari@gmail.com>]

One possibility can be to use the "git-new-workdir"
script that is distributed in the contrib directory
of git source. It allows to have many work dirs insisting
on the same repo (yet possibly operating on different branches!)

I believe that you might need to be careful with that,
though:

1) There is no check about the possibility of messing things
up by working on the same branch from two points.
2) There should be a basic infrastructure to avoid nasty
things from happening but I do not know if it is complete.
3) Implementation is based on symlinks in the git directory,
so it is only for architectures supporting symlinks and, since
there are many symlinks, if something gets changed by mistake and
some symlink looses consistency with the others bad things may
happen.
