Imagine you have a working directory trainings :

├── trainings
└── 
│   ├── angular-tps
│   └── typescript-tps

And you want to extract all the branches of typescript-tps, stay at the root of trainings, make a tmp directory, and launch git2folder:

mkdir typescript-tps-tmp
git2folder extract
> ./typescript-tps
> ./typescript-tps-tmp

Work on the updates you want, and after reload git2folder with update command

git2folder update
