It doesn't. What bugs me is that the database (the "pulled" tree if you
will) is stored in it. It has already been pointed out how to put it
elsewhere, so no need to explain that.
What *really* bugs me is that it's so difficult to have one "pulled"
tree and create a bunch of checked out copies from that.
I dont see were the difficulty resides?
#Setup a base repository
cd /../master
git [--bare] clone git://git.postgresql.org/whatever .
#Method 1
cd /../child1
git clone --reference /../master/ git://git.postgresql.org/whatever .
cd /../child2
git clone --reference /../master/ git://git.postgresql.org/whatever .
This way you can fetch from the git url without problem, but when a
object is available locally it is not downloaded again.
#Method2
cd /../child3
git clone --shared /../postgresql/ child3
...
This way you only fetch from your "pulled" tree and never possibly from
the upstream one.
