How to clone a specific Git tag
git, git-clone, git-tag
Solution
git clone --depth 1 --branch <tag_name> <repo_url>
`--depth 1` is optional but if you only need the state at that one revision, you probably want to skip downloading all the history up to that revision.
Problem
From git-clone(1) Manual Page `--branch` can also take tags and detaches the HEAD at that commit in the resulting repository. I tried ``` git clone --branch <tag_name> <repo_url> ``` But it does not work. It returns: ``` warning: Remote branch 2.13.0 not found in upstream origin, using HEAD instead ``` How to use this parameter?
