Issue Git Pull subfolder as website root

[iCarnagy]

It seems like you cannot serve a subfolder of git-pulled data as the web root.

For example, I want to pull a complete github repository (in my case a webkit based website) but I want to only serve the subfolder "dist" as the webroot.
If I do so in the website settings, the "dist" folder does not get filled with the pulled files. Maybe because it has not the permission to recreate the webroot folder.

Is there a way to solve this issue?
