GIT CLONING
As a starter, using git techniques can be overwhelming and in this post, I'll talk about one of the basic git techniques which are Git Clone. Join me as I explain what git clone is.
What is Git Clone?
the clone command downloads an existing Git repository/project to your local computer. This enables us to work on our copy of the project/repository without any reference from other changes.
To clone a repository, run the git-clone command, followed by the path to the repository.
git clone/path/to/repo
if outsource doesn't reside in the same system, you can SSH to a remote system and clone too
git clone username@remote_system
here is also a graphical example of cloning with SSH.
if you're cloning from a source on the internet, you can simply add the URL
git clone https://github.com/username.git/the project
in this post, I've talked about GIT CLONE and the ways on how to clone repository or project right into your
local computer.
