How to redirect my homepage only using .htaccess

I know this is silly question for you but not for me

I am using rdp for manage my account and somehow I got problem in that

Like I have my portfolio in hthocs/portfolio folder, now whenever someone visit it, i need like that

example.com

and whenever someone visit htdocs/example, i need like this

example.com/example

So i only want to redirect homepage folder in my site and other folder behave regularly

I search on internet and I found like that

RedirectMatch ^/$ /portfolio

but using this, its shows correct path like example.com/portfolio

EXAMPLE

Give you example of localhost,

htdocs
|
|--- portfolio (folder)
|--- stackoverflow (folder)

Whenever I visit localhost in browser ( internally it will redirect to htdocs/portfolio ) and when I visit localhost/stackoverflow in browser, It will redirect to htdocs/stackoverflow not in htdocs/portfolio/stackoveflow.

using RedirectMatch ^/$ /portfolio this code, I solved my problem but whenever I visit localhost, in browser its shows real path localhost/portfolio. i don't want to client know it will redirect to this folder

I use # to scroll in website but now when i click on that, it will redirect to original folder

You can use these rules in your site root .htaccess:

RewriteEngine On

# to internally rewrite / to /portfolio
RewriteRule ^$ /portfolio/ [L]

To fix css/js, you can add this just below <head> tag of your page's HTML: 

<base href="/" />
