# git clone
> Clone an existing repository.
> More information: <https://git-scm.com/docs/git-clone>.
- Clone an existing repository into a new directory (the default directory is the repository name):
`git clone {{remote_repository_location}} {{path/to/directory}}`
- Clone an existing repository and its submodules:
`git clone --recursive {{remote_repository_location}}`
- Clone only the `.git` directory of an existing repository:
`git clone {{[-n|--no-checkout]}} {{remote_repository_location}}`
- Clone a local repository:
`git clone {{[-l|--local]]} {{path/to/local/repository}}`
- Clone quietly:
`git clone {{[-q|--quiet]}} {{remote_repository_location}}`
- Clone an existing repository only fetching the 10 most recent commits on the default branch (useful to save time):
`git clone --depth {{10}} {{remote_repository_location}}`
- Clone an existing repository only fetching a specific branch:
`git clone {{[-b|--branch]}} {{name}} --single-branch {{remote_repository_location}}`
- Clone an existing repository using a specific SSH command:
`git clone {{[-c|--config]}} core.sshCommand="{{ssh -i path/to/private_ssh_key}}" {{remote_repository_location}}`
