Dreamweaver site root below Git repository

This is more of a Dreamweaver question more than anything else — because I want to design the site and manage my git repo from within Dreamweaver. Let’s say I have a Git repository setup, called git-repo-web.

Folder structure is as follows:

computer1:git-repo-web user1$ tree
.
├── .git
├── .gitlab-ci.yml
├── .gitignore
├── README.md
└── htdocs
    ├── bootstrap
    |   └── css
    │       ├── bootstrap-theme.css
    │       ├── bootstrap-theme.min.css
    │       └── bootstrap.css
    ├── index.html
    ├── template-simple.html
    ├── template.html
    ├── terms.html
    └── whatsnew.html

In Dreamweaver, my site looks like this.
If I setup the Dreamweaver site at the git-repo-web level, it works well with my existing git repository, but when I try to view content under htdocs it does not properly display the webpages due to the way it looks for the css files.

If I setup the Dreamweaver site at the htdocs level, the websites render perfectly, but it does not know about the existing git repo which is a level above htdocs.

I would like to add my Dreamweaver site at the git-repo-web directory level so that it recognizes the existing git repository, but I want my site root to be a directory below this, which should be htdocs. Is this possible?

Can I define my site at git-repo-web and then define a symbolic root at htdocs?
