Can't run any git commands in $GERRIT_SITE/git folder
<p>I have gerrit installed. </p>

<p>When a project is created through the gerrit web UI, the project is reflected in the <code>$GERRIT_SITE/git</code> folder.   </p>

<p>For instance if a project <em>trial</em> is created on gerrit, a <code>trial.git</code> folder is created in <code>$GERRIT_SITE/git</code> folder.  </p>

<p>But when I try to run any <code>git</code> commands in <code>$GERRIT_SITE/git/trial.git</code> folder such as follows, I get the following error:</p>

<pre><code>$ git status
fatal: This operation must be run in a work tree
</code></pre>

<p>I do not know how to go about this and would need some guidance.</p>
