What is 'bare repository' in Git?
A “bare” repository in Git contains information about the version control and no working files (no tree) and it doesn’t contain the special .git sub-directory. Instead, it contains all the contents of the .git sub-directory directly in the main directory itself, whereas the working directory consists of :
 
* A .git subdirectory with all the Git related revision history of your repository.

* A working tree, or checked out copies of your project files.
