title: Cloning a Specific Branch in Git
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
To clone a branch, enter the following into the terminal:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
git clone -b <branch> <remote_repo>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you only want to fetch the specified branch:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
git clone -b <branch> --single-branch <remote_repo>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Here is an example of fetching the `staging` branch from FreeCodeCamp:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
git clone -b staging https://github.com/FreeCodeCamp/FreeCodeCamp.git
