How to git clone a repo in windows from other pc within the LAN?

You should use the command git daemon to host your repo, like this:

In your computer that will act as a server:

git daemon --base-path=<path_to_folder_containing_project_folder> --export-all

(please note that path_to_folder_containing_project is the folder containing your projects folders, it will provide all projects under that folder)

In your client:

git clone git://<local ip>/<project name>

The cloned repo will have its origin pointing to the server in your LAN, so you may want to use git remote set-url origin to point it to the original origin.

You may want to run git daemon with the --verbose option to get more details in case you run into problems.

To access the repo, you must either share it on 192.168.0.6 or must be the same domain user as the one that owns the file on 192.168.0.6.

If you share the directory on 192.168.0.6 (e.g. with share name myrepo), you access it with //192.168.0.6/myrepo.

If you are logged in on your box with a user accout that is known on 192.168.0.6, you could try accessing the repo through the administrative shares:

//192.168.0.6/c$/xampp/htdocs/...

Always use forward slashes.

Another alternative would be using SSH to access the remote machine.

Make sure that your c:/xampp/htdocs folder (or sub folders of it) is shared in windows, so you can navigate on the network by this address:

\\192.168.0.6\htdocs

Then you clone by using file:////. Note that there are four slashes:

git clone file:////192.168.0.6/htdocs/somerepo.git
