Re: Export then import

One thing to keep in mind is that you cannot copy a local working set of
your repository using Explorer or CLI on your local machine or network
there are a number of hidden files that will go bazooka when you commit
such a stunt.

If you want another copy of your repository you must do a checkout to
your new location on your local machine.

But if you want to keep your production code I'd suggest that you do a
label or a branch to protect that version and continue your development
in the HEAD branch.
