277 <h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
\r
278 <div class="sectionbody">
\r
279 <p>Clones a repository into a newly created directory. All remote
\r
280 branch heads are copied under <tt>$GIT_DIR/refs/heads/</tt>, except
\r
281 that the remote <tt>master</tt> is also copied to <tt>origin</tt> branch.</p>
\r
282 <p>In addition, <tt>$GIT_DIR/remotes/origin</tt> file is set up to have

\r
285 <div class="content">
\r
286 <pre><tt>Pull: master:origin</tt></pre>
\r
288 <p>This is to help the typical workflow of working off of the
\r
289 remote <tt>master</tt> branch. Every time <tt>git pull</tt> without argument
\r
290 is run, the progress on the remote <tt>master</tt> branch is tracked by
\r
291 copying it into the local <tt>origin</tt> branch, and merged into the
\r
292 branch you are currently working on. Remote branches other than
\r
293 <tt>master</tt> are also added there to be tracked.</p>
\r
296 <div class="sectionbody">
\r
306 When the repository to clone from is on a local machine,
\r
307 this flag bypasses normal "git aware" transport
\r
308 mechanism and clones the repository by making a copy of
\r
309 HEAD and everything under objects and refs directories.
\r
310 The files under .git/objects/ directory are hardlinked
\r
311 to save space when possible.
\r
322 When the repository to clone is on the local machine,
\r
323 instead of using hard links, automatically setup
\r
324 .git/objects/info/alternatives to share the objects
\r
325 with the source repository. The resulting repository
\r
326 starts out without any object of its own.
\r
337 Operate quietly. This flag is passed to "rsync" and
\r
338 "git-clone-pack" commands when given.
\r
346 No checkout of HEAD is performed after the clone is complete.
\r
354 Instead of using the branch name <em>origin</em> to keep track
\r
355 of the upstream repository, use <name> instead. Note
\r
356 that the shorthand name stored in <tt>remotes/origin</tt> is
\r
357 not affected, but the local branch name to pull the
\r
358 remote <tt>master</tt> branch into is.
\r
362 --upload-pack <upload-pack>
\r
365 -u <upload-pack>
\r
369 When given, and the repository to clone from is handled
\r
370 by <em>git-clone-pack</em>, <em>--exec=<upload-pack></em> is passed to
\r
371 the command to specify non-default path for the command
\r
372 run on the other end.
\r
380 The (possibly remote) repository to clone from. It can
\r
381 be any URL git-fetch supports.
\r
389 The name of a new directory to clone into. The "humanish"
\r
390 part of the source repository is used if no directory is
\r
391 explicitly given ("repo" for "/path/to/repo.git" and "foo"
\r
392 for "host.xz:foo/.git"). Cloning into an existing directory
