git force-clone

Provides the basic functionality of git clone, but if the destination Git repository already exists it will force-reset it to resemble a clone of the remote. Part of git-extras. More information: https://github.com/tj/git-extras/blob/master/Commands.md#git-force-clone.

  • Clone a Git repository into a new directory:

git force-clone {{remote_repository_location}} {{path/to/directory}}

  • Clone a Git repository into a new directory, checking out an specific branch:

git force-clone -b {{branch_name}} {{remote_repository_location}} {{path/to/directory}}

  • Clone a Git repository into an existing directory of a Git repository, performing a force-reset to resemble it to the remote and checking out an specific branch:

git force-clone -b {{branch_name}} {{remote_repository_location}} {{path/to/directory}}
