It also does not look right for cloning a tag: $ LANG=C ./git clone --single-branch --branch=v1.7.0 .git abc Cloning into 'abc'... done. Note: checking out 'e923eaeb901ff056421b9007adcbbce271caa7b6'. You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout. If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example: git checkout -b new_branch_name $ grep fetch abc/.git/config fetch = +refs/heads/v1.7.0:refs/remotes/origin/v1.7.0 -- Duy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
