| <h2 id="_description">DESCRIPTION</h2> |
| <div class="sectionbody"> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Clones a repository into a newly created directory, creates |
| remote-tracking branches for each branch in the cloned repository |
| (visible using <code>git</code> <code>branch</code> <code>--remotes</code>), and creates and checks out an |
| initial branch that is forked from the cloned repository’s |
| currently active branch.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>After the clone, a plain <code>git</code> <code>fetch</code> without arguments will update |
| all the remote-tracking branches, and a <code>git</code> <code>pull</code> without |
| arguments will in addition merge the remote master branch into the |
| current master branch, if any (this is untrue when <code>--single-branch</code> |
| is given; see below).</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>This default configuration is achieved by creating references to |
| the remote branch heads under <code>refs/remotes/origin</code> and |
| by initializing <code>remote.origin.url</code> and <code>remote.origin.fetch</code> |
| configuration variables.</p> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| <div class="sect1"> |
| <h2 id="_options">OPTIONS</h2> |
| <div class="sectionbody"> |
| <div class="dlist"> |
| <dl> |
| <dt class="hdlist1"><code>-l</code></dt> |
| <dt class="hdlist1"><code>--local</code></dt> |
| <dd> |
| <p>When the repository to clone from is on a local machine, |
| this flag bypasses the normal "Git aware" transport |
| mechanism and clones the repository by making a copy of |
| <code>HEAD</code> and everything under objects and refs directories. |
| The files under .<code>git/objects/</code> directory are hardlinked |
| to save space when possible.</p> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>If the repository is specified as a local path (e.g., <code>/path/to/repo</code>), |
| this is the default, and <code>--local</code> is essentially a no-op. If the |
| repository is specified as a URL, then this flag is ignored (and we |
| never use the local optimizations). Specifying <code>--no-local</code> will |
| override the default when <code>/path/to/repo</code> is given, using the regular |
| Git transport instead.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>If the repository’s <code>$GIT_DIR/objects</code> has symbolic links or is a |
| symbolic link, the clone will fail. This is a security measure to |
| prevent the unintentional copying of files by dereferencing the symbolic |
| links.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>This option does not work with repositories owned by other users for security |
| reasons, and <code>--no-local</code> must be specified for the clone to succeed.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p><strong>NOTE</strong>: this operation can race with concurrent modification to the |
| source repository, similar to running <code>cp</code> <code>-r</code> <em><src></em> <em><dst></em> while modifying |
| <em><src></em>.</p> |
| </div> |
| </dd> |
| <dt class="hdlist1"><code>--no-hardlinks</code></dt> |
| <dd> |
| <p>Force the cloning process from a repository on a local |
| filesystem to copy the files under the .<code>git/objects</code> |
| directory instead of using hardlinks. This may be desirable |
| if you are trying to make a back-up of your repository.</p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt class="hdlist1"><code>-s</code></dt> |
| <dt class="hdlist1"><code>--shared</code></dt> |
| <dd> |
| <p>When the repository to clone is on the local machine, |
| instead of using hard links, automatically setup |
| .<code>git/objects/info/alternates</code> to share the objects |
| with the source repository. The resulting repository |
| starts out without any object of its own.</p> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p><strong>NOTE</strong>: this is a possibly dangerous operation; do <strong>not</strong> use |
| it unless you understand what it does. If you clone your |
| repository using this option and then delete branches (or use any |
| other Git command that makes any existing commit unreferenced) in the |
| source repository, some objects may become unreferenced (or dangling). |
| These objects may be removed by normal Git operations (such as <code>git</code> <code>commit</code>) |
| which automatically call <code>git</code> <code>maintenance</code> <code>run</code> <code>--auto</code>. (See |
| <a href="git-maintenance.html">git-maintenance(1)</a>.) If these objects are removed and were referenced |
| by the cloned repository, then the cloned repository will become corrupt.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Note that running <code>git</code> <code>repack</code> without the <code>--local</code> option in a repository |
| cloned with <code>--shared</code> will copy objects from the source repository into a pack |
| in the cloned repository, removing the disk space savings of <code>clone</code> <code>--shared</code>. |
| It is safe, however, to run <code>git</code> <code>gc</code>, which uses the <code>--local</code> option by |
| default.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>If you want to break the dependency of a repository cloned with <code>--shared</code> on |
| its source repository, you can simply run <code>git</code> <code>repack</code> <code>-a</code> to copy all |
| objects from the source repository into a pack in the cloned repository.</p> |
| </div> |
| </dd> |
| <dt class="hdlist1"><code>--reference</code>[<code>-if-able</code>] <em><repository></em></dt> |
| <dd> |
| <p>If the reference <em><repository></em> is on the local machine, |
| automatically setup .<code>git/objects/info/alternates</code> to |
| obtain objects from the reference <em><repository></em>. Using |
| an already existing repository as an alternate will |
| require fewer objects to be copied from the repository |
| being cloned, reducing network and local storage costs. |
| When using the <code>--reference-if-able</code>, a non existing |
| directory is skipped with a warning instead of aborting |
| the clone.</p> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p><strong>NOTE</strong>: see the NOTE for the <code>--shared</code> option, and also the |
| <code>--dissociate</code> option.</p> |
| </div> |
| </dd> |
| <dt class="hdlist1"><code>--dissociate</code></dt> |
| <dd> |
| <p>Borrow the objects from reference repositories specified |
| with the <code>--reference</code> options only to reduce network |
| transfer, and stop borrowing from them after a clone is made |
| by making necessary local copies of borrowed objects. This |
| option can also be used when cloning locally from a |
| repository that already borrows objects from another |
| repository—​the new repository will borrow objects from the |
| same repository, and this option can be used to stop the |
| borrowing.</p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt class="hdlist1"><code>-q</code></dt> |
| <dt class="hdlist1"><code>--quiet</code></dt> |
| <dd> |

| error stream.</p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt class="hdlist1"><code>-v</code></dt> |
| <dt class="hdlist1"><code>--verbose</code></dt> |
| <dd> |
| <p>Run verbosely. Does not affect the reporting of progress status |
| to the standard error stream.</p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt class="hdlist1"><code>--progress</code></dt> |
| <dd> |
| <p>Progress status is reported on the standard error stream |
| by default when it is attached to a terminal, unless <code>--quiet</code> |
| is specified. This flag forces progress status even if the |
| standard error stream is not directed to a terminal.</p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt class="hdlist1"><code>--server-option=</code><em><option></em></dt> |
| <dd> |
| <p>Transmit the given string to the server when communicating using |
| protocol version 2. The given string must not contain a NUL or LF |
| character. The server’s handling of server options, including |
| unknown ones, is server-specific. |
| When multiple <code>--server-option=</code><em><option></em> are given, they are all |
| sent to the other side in the order listed on the command line. |
| When no <code>--server-option=</code><em><option></em> is given from the command |
| line, the values of configuration variable <code>remote.</code><em><name></em><code>.serverOption</code> |
| are used instead.</p> |
| </dd> |
| <dt class="hdlist1"><code>-n</code></dt> |
| <dt class="hdlist1"><code>--no-checkout</code></dt> |

| Depending on the transport protocol, some of this information may be |
| absent.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>Git supports ssh, git, http, and https protocols (in addition, ftp |

| deprecated; do not use them).</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>The native transport (i.e. <code>git://</code> URL) does no authentication and |
| should be used with caution on unsecured networks.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>The following syntaxes may be used with them:</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="ulist"> |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| <p><code>ssh://</code>[<em><user></em><code>@</code>]<em><host></em>[<code>:</code><em><port></em>]<code>/</code><em><path-to-git-repo></em></p> |

| </li> |
| </ul> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>An alternative scp-like syntax may also be used with the ssh protocol:</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="ulist"> |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| <p>[<em><user></em><code>@</code>]<em><host></em><code>:/</code><em><path-to-git-repo></em></p> |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>This syntax is only recognized if there are no slashes before the |
| first colon. This helps differentiate a local path that contains a |
| colon. For example the local path <code>foo:bar</code> could be specified as an |
| absolute path or .<code>/foo:bar</code> to avoid being misinterpreted as an ssh |
| url.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>The ssh and git protocols additionally support <code>~</code><em><username></em> expansion:</p> |

| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>For local repositories, also supported by Git natively, the following |
| syntaxes may be used:</p> |

| <div class="ulist"> |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| <p><code>/path/to/repo.git/</code></p> |

| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p><code>git</code> <code>clone</code>, <code>git</code> <code>fetch</code> and <code>git</code> <code>pull</code>, but not <code>git</code> <code>push</code>, will also |
| accept a suitable bundle file. See <a href="git-bundle.html">git-bundle(1)</a>.</p> |

| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>When Git doesn’t know how to handle a certain transport protocol, it |

| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>If there are a large number of similarly-named remote repositories and |
