git - cloning a remote branch results in cloning all remote branches...why? -


for reason keep on cloning remote branches when want clone specific remote branch.

i've google , search in 1 can't seem find it. i'm trying clone remote branch, say:

git clone https://github.com/whatever --branch foo 

once finished, if check branches:

git branch -a  

i can see list of remote branches...maybe got wrong...but how can clone specific branch only? don't want/need others...any idea?

thanks

use --single-branch option:

git clone https://github.com/whatever --branch foo --single-branch <folder>
