filesystems - Interaction between git client and local file system -


i'm running git bash client on windows machine , use clone branches of remote repo directory named "localrepo" on windows machine. repo has 2 branches ("master" , "develop") , start out on branch "master".

when open "localrepo" in windows file explorer, see .git sub-directory , various files , sub-directories of branch.

when go git client command line , checkout branch "develop", git client manipulate windows file system see files on branch "develop" when go "localrepo" in windows file explorer?

i assume git keeping state of branches in .git directory.

is git creating symbolic links switches when branches changed?

yes, after git checkout develop, git physically update localrepo windows folder files develop branch. try , see.
