The challenge problem to remove a nested git repository at the end of episode 3 has a confusing solution. It uses the term "working tree" that is not used anywhere else in the course. It discusses "working directory" before that is introduced in episode 4. Furthermore, removing the errant
.git
directory is not the same as "removing files from the repository", and in general anrm
command will not remove files from the history of a git repository.Others have also noticed this problem. Among all the changes in #686 there is a similar edit.
