       gbp-clone - Clone a repository from remote

SYNOPSIS

       gbp  clone  [  --version  ]  [ --help ] [ --verbose ] [ --color=[auto|on|off] ] [ --color-
       scheme=COLOR_SCHEME ] [ --all ] [ --[no-]pristine-tar ] [ --debian-branch=branch_name ]  [
       --upstream-branch=branch_name ] [ --depth=depth ] [ --reference=repository ] remote_uri

DESCRIPTION

       gbp  clone  clones  a  remote  repository  and  sets  up tracking branches for the debian,
       upstream and pristine-tar branches. This way you can easily update later using gbp pull.

OPTIONS

       --version
              Print version of the program, i.e. version of the git-buildpackage suite

       -v

       --verbose
              Verbose execution

       -h

       --help Print help and exit

       --color=[auto|on|off]
              Whether to use colored output.

       --color-scheme=COLOR_SCHEME
              Colors to use in output (when color is enabled). The  format  for  COLOR_SCHEME  is
              '<debug>:<info>:<warning>:<error>'.  Numerical values and color names are accepted,
              empty fields imply the default color. For  example,  --git-color-scheme='cyan:34::'
              would  show  debug  messages  in  cyan, info messages in blue and other messages in
              default (i.e. warning and error messages in red).

       --all  Track all branches, not only debian and upstream.

       --debian-branch=branch_name
              The branch in the Git repository the Debian package is being developed on,  default
              is master.

       --upstream-branch=branch_name
              The  branch  in  the  Git  repository the upstream sources are put onto. Default is
              upstream.

       --depth=depth
              Git history depth, for creating shallow git clones.

       --reference=repository
              Local repository to use  as  alternate  instead  of  re-copying  data  from  remote
              repository.

       --pristine-tar
              Track pristine tar branch.

CONFIGURATION FILES

       Several  gbp.conf  files  are parsed to set defaults for the above command-line arguments.
       See the gbp.conf(5)> manpage for details.
