From 7a4ee28f41270bf032d0dd0bfb17f601b9b3971a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff King Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2009 15:05:08 -0400 Subject: clone: add --branch option to select a different HEAD We currently point the HEAD of a newly cloned repo to the same ref as the parent repo's HEAD. While a user can then "git checkout -b foo origin/foo" whichever branch they choose, it is more convenient and more efficient to tell clone which branch you want in the first place. Based on a patch by Kirill A. Korinskiy.
