<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 branch --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 fetch</code> without arguments will update
all the remote-tracking branches, and a <code>git 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>

<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>),

These objects may be removed by normal Git operations (such as <code>git commit</code>)
