                How to clone a git repo to an existing folder (not empty)
              
          
First get to the existing directory

$ cd my/folder/


Now start a new git repository

$ git init


Identify if the current elements on the directory are needed or not and add them to the .gitignore file. When ready...

$ vim .gitignore


When ready create the first commit on the server
