Clone a Repository:
This will create a new directory named after the repository in your current working directory, and copy all the files and history from the remote repository to your local machine.
git clone <repository URL> git clone https://github.com/jayaram509/gitdemo.git
Clone a Repository into a Directory
You can also specify a directory name to clone into using the following command:
git clone <repository URL> <directory name>
For example:This will clone the repository into a directory named git-demo-repo
git clone https://github.com/jayaram509/gitdemo.git git-demo-repo
Clone a Specific Branch
To clone a specific branch of a repository, you can use the following command:
git clone -b <branch name> <repository URL>
For example:This will clone only the “dev” branch of the repository.
git clone -b dev https://github.com/jayaram509/gitdemo.git
Clone to Depth of commits
You can also clone a repository to a specific commit using the following command:
git clone <repository URL> --depth <number of commits>
For example:This will clone the repository with only the most recent commit, making it faster and more space-efficient
git clone https://github.com/jayaram509/gitdemo.git --depth 1
