 356         When the repository to clone from is on a local machine,
 357         this flag bypasses the normal "git aware" transport
 358         mechanism and clones the repository by making a copy of
 359         HEAD and everything under objects and refs directories.
 360         The files under <tt>.git/objects/</tt> directory are hardlinked
 361         to save space when possible.  This is now the default when
 362         the source repository is specified with <tt>/path/to/repo</tt>
 363         syntax, so it essentially is a no-op option.  To force
 364         copying instead of hardlinking (which may be desirable
 365         if you are trying to make a back-up of your repository),
 366         but still avoid the usual "git aware" transport
 367         mechanism, <tt>--no-hardlinks</tt> can be used.

 375         Optimize the cloning process from a repository on a

 387 <p>
 388         When the repository to clone is on the local machine,
 389         instead of using hard links, automatically setup
 390         <tt>.git/objects/info/alternates</tt> to share the objects
 391         with the source repository.  The resulting repository
 392         starts out without any object of its own.
 393 </p>
 394 <div class="para"><p><strong>NOTE</strong>: this is a possibly dangerous operation; do <strong>not</strong> use
 395 it unless you understand what it does. If you clone your
 396 repository using this option and then delete branches (or use any
 397 other git command that makes any existing commit unreferenced) in the
 398 source repository, some objects may become unreferenced (or dangling).
 399 These objects may be removed by normal git operations (such as <tt>git commit</tt>)
 400 which automatically call <tt>git gc --auto</tt>. (See <a href="git-gc.html">git-gc(1)</a>.)
 401 If these objects are removed and were referenced by the cloned repository,
 402 then the cloned repository will become corrupt.</p></div>
 403 <div class="para"><p>Note that running <tt>git repack</tt> without the <tt>-l</tt> option in a repository
 404 cloned with <tt>-s</tt> will copy objects from the source repository into a pack
 405 in the cloned repository, removing the disk space savings of <tt>clone -s</tt>.
 406 It is safe, however, to run <tt>git gc</tt>, which uses the <tt>-l</tt> option by
 407 default.</p></div>
 408 <div class="para"><p>If you want to break the dependency of a repository cloned with <tt>-s</tt> on
 409 its source repository, you can simply run <tt>git repack -a</tt> to copy all
 410 objects from the source repository into a pack in the cloned repository.</p></div>

 417         If the reference repository is on the local machine,
 418         automatically setup <tt>.git/objects/info/alternates</tt> to
 419         obtain objects from the reference repository.  Using
 420         an already existing repository as an alternate will
 421         require fewer objects to be copied from the repository
 422         being cloned, reducing network and local storage costs.

 466         Make a <em>bare</em> GIT repository.  That is, instead of
 467         creating <tt>&lt;directory&gt;</tt> and placing the administrative
 468         files in <tt>&lt;directory&gt;/.git</tt>, make the <tt>&lt;directory&gt;</tt>
 469         itself the <tt>$GIT_DIR</tt>. This obviously implies the <tt>-n</tt>
 470         because there is nowhere to check out the working tree.
 471         Also the branch heads at the remote are copied directly
 472         to corresponding local branch heads, without mapping
 473         them to <tt>refs/remotes/origin/</tt>.  When this option is
 474         used, neither remote-tracking branches nor the related
 475         configuration variables are created.

 504 <dd>
 505 <p>
 506         Instead of pointing the newly created HEAD to the branch pointed
 507         to by the cloned repository's HEAD, point to <tt>&lt;name&gt;</tt> branch
 508         instead. In a non-bare repository, this is the branch that will
 509         be checked out.

 520         When given, and the repository to clone from is accessed

 540         Create a <em>shallow</em> clone with a history truncated to the
 541         specified number of revisions.  A shallow repository has a
 542         number of limitations (you cannot clone or fetch from
 543         it, nor push from nor into it), but is adequate if you
 544         are only interested in the recent history of a large project
 545         with a long history, and would want to send in fixes
 546         as patches.

 554         After the clone is created, initialize all submodules within,

 556         <tt>git submodule update --init --recursive</tt> immediately after
 557         the clone is finished. This option is ignored if the cloned
 558         repository does not have a worktree/checkout (i.e. if any of
 559         <tt>--no-checkout</tt>/<tt>-n</tt>, <tt>--bare</tt>, or <tt>--mirror</tt> is given)
