Visual Studio 项目文件和本地 Git 存储库

Question

I'm starting to use Git and Git Hub with VS2019. However, i am somewhat confused on how my visual studio solution files are stored and what is stored in the local git repository.

According to this image https://i.stack.imgur.com/gi1RY.png . there should be two locations on my local PC where my solution files are stored. In the "Development workspace" which is under c:\\Dev<Solution name> and in the "local Git Repo" which is C:\\Users<My UserName>\\source\\repos.

However, when i create a new solution on my workstation the solution location is defaulting to the Repo location C:\\Users<My UserName>\\source\\repos.

So that is he only location my code is stored.

If i change the locaton for my solution back to c:\\Dev<Solution name> a .git folder is created in this new locaton. But nothing is created under C:\\Users<My UserName>\\source\\repos.

Is this right or am i missing the point ? There appears to only be one location for my solution files.

Yes, a local Git repository and its associated solution files are one and the same - in the same location. The solution files are your local copy of the Git repository.

On Visual Stuido 16.8.1, you can change the default location of new projects in:

Tools > Options > Projects and Solutions > Locations .

You can also change the default location of new or cloned Git projects in:

Git > Settings > Git Global Settings .
