NAME

       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.
