git clone

Clone an existing repository. More information: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-clone.

• Clone an existing repository into a new directory (the default directory is the repository name):
  git clone {{remote_repository_location}} {{path/to/directory}}
• Clone an existing repository and its submodules:
  git clone --recursive {{remote_repository_location}}
• Clone only the .git directory of an existing repository:
  git clone --no-checkout {{remote_repository_location}}
• Clone a local repository:
  git clone --local {{path/to/local/repository}}
• Clone quietly:
  git clone --quiet {{remote_repository_location}}
• Clone an existing repository only fetching the 10 most recent commits on the default branch (useful to save time):
  git clone --depth {{10}} {{remote_repository_location}}
• Clone an existing repository only fetching a specific branch:
  git clone --branch {{name}} --single-branch {{remote_repository_location}}
• Clone an existing repository using a specific SSH command:
  git clone --config core.sshCommand="{{ssh -i path/to/private_ssh_key}}" {{remote_repository_location}}
