title: Git repository folder
body: <p>I am new in learning programming, and got stuck while learning Git. From what I have learned so far, if we want to use Git locally, we may first need to create a folder, and then create a Git repository inside with the <code>git init</code> command.</p>
  <p>Are those files that wanted to be kept track of necessary to be in the same folder as the <code>.git</code> directory?</p>
