 What directory is the 'working copy'? There can be two interpretations: the current dir and the .git dir.

+> It is fairly common terminology amoung all version control systems to use
+> "working copy" to refer to a checkout from version control, including
+> copies of all the versioned files, and whatever VCS-specific cruft that

+> a repository. --[[Joey]]
