stg-clone — Make a local clone of a remote repository

Synopsis

stg clone <repository> <dir>

Description

Clone a git repository into the local directory <dir> (using stg-clone(1)) and initialise the local branch "master".

This operation is for example suitable to start working using the "tracking branch" workflow (see 1[1]). Other means to setup an StGit stack are stg-init(1) and the --create and --clone commands of stg-branch(1).

The target directory <dir> will be created by this command, and must not already exist.

Stgit

Part of the StGit suite - see stg(1)
