Allen Wittenauer commented on YETUS-1158:
-----------------------------------------

There are a bunch of potential ways to implement this feature:

* git worktrees
* keep track of the sha/branch/whatever and git clean -xdf; git reset 
* copy entire repo to another location

All of these methods have their pros and cons.

> restore repo back to original state

> One of the issues seen is that Apache Yetus purposefully wrecks the existing 
> checkout (unless --dirty-workspace is used of course).  It would be extremely 
> useful if test-patch could automatically restore the repo to the original 
> state.
