It's unclear what you want to achieve. Retrieving a git repository is just a matter of copying the entiry repository directory (including .git dir). ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

Please don't remove the gist mailing list from the CC (use reply all). Is this VM used to host the repositories, meaning, are they bare repositories? You have to be a little more verbose, it's hard for us to guess what is going on. If you have restored the VM, it's just a matter of copying the repository directory from the backup vm to the current VM.. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
