+6 A:

This should do it:

git checkout src

Or `git checkout master -- src/` (or just `git checkout .` to restore everything in current (sub)directory)

Hey Thanks, Your recommendation doesn't work. Since the src folder in the master branch does not exist longer. Any other ideas?

That shouldn't matter. What error do you get?

Ja, do you mean to say that you deleted the directory (probably using *git rm*) and then committed it? In that case, the simplest solution is to find the particular commit (using *git log*) and then do *git revert <commit-id>*.
