htaccess re-route Public directory to subfolder

I have:

public/
-- index.php
-- my_subdir/
---- index.php

I simply want to re-route to my_subdir.

(why? because my_subdir contains my new joomla website.)

EDIT, to explain why all the other solutions were not working ... I have been working on this for a couple of hours, and nothing worked. Even the accepted answer here did not initially work. The problem was Not the many solutions provided by google, but rather that I had conflicting rules/conditions.

So here is an example of what I had that was not working (the stuff to the right of the arrows is WHAT I needed to get everything working):

RewriteEngine on

<<<< RewriteCond %{REMOTE_HOST} !^111\.111\.111\.111 
######## my ip address for testing 
########   because this was not originally included, 
########     apparently I was being redirected to maintenance.html ...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/maintenance.html$ 
RewriteRule $ /maintenance.html [R=302]

######## thus by the time the script/server got to this line
########   I was actually at maintenance.html,
########     and so this next condition did not apply to me
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/my_subdir
RewriteRule ^.*$ /my_subdir/$0 [L]

If you have the same directory structure below my_subdir, you can simply rewrite everything with 

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/my_subdir
RewriteRule ^.*$ /my_subdir/$0 [L]

If you want to redirect instead, i.e. make the new URL visible in the browser, you must also add the R flag 

RewriteRule ^.*$ /my_subdir/$0 [R,L]
