Local WordPress from Git repo, where to set document root?

So your Git repository was initialized in the wrong place. If you have the initial files, you can go back there and try again making sure the git repo is in the actualy document root and make sure all of the files are tracked.

If you do not you can do a fresh install of WordPress and copy the files in wp-content/uploads wp-content/themes and wp-content/plugins to the newly created wp-content directory.
