The clone wizard can be started by clicking "Click to perform" below.<br /><br />
Alternatively you can launch this wizard from the "Import Projects from Git" wizard using "Import... > Git > Projects from Git > Next > Clone..." or from the "Git Repositories View" using the "Clone a Git Repository" toolbar button.<br /><br />
<b>To start this cheat sheet from a separately opened wizard, click the help icon and then select "Cloning a Git Repository".</b>

title="Repository Selection" dialog="true">
<description>
<b>Enter the repository location.</b><br /><br />
If you already have a <b>repository URI</b> in your clipboard, i.e. copied from a gitweb, github, wiki or any other page, it will be automatically entered into the URI field. The other fields (i.e. Host, Repository path, Protocol, Port) will then be automatically filled.<br /><br />
In case cloning requires <b>authentication</b> (which is not the case for many repositories), enter your credentials into the User and Password fields.<br /><br />
For a complete description of all fields as well as the supported protocols, see the referenced <b>documentation.</b>

<item title="Branch Selection" dialog="true">
<description>
<b>Choose branches to be cloned from the repository.</b><br /><br />
By default all available branches are checked.

</item>
<item title="Local Destination" dialog="true">
<description>
<b>Define local storage settings.</b><br /><br />
Specify the <b>destination directory</b> of the cloned repository. If this directory does not yet exist, it will be created by the wizard.<br /><br />
Optionally, you can change the <b>initial branch</b> that will be created and checked out locally. The default <b>remote name</b> is 'origin'. This can also be changed if necessary.<br /><br />
<b>Click Finish to end the wizard.</b>
