Before cloning, although, you should confirm that you have checked the following steps:. After checking the above-given steps, navigate to your GitHub account to the repository page which you want to clone.
The panel will change to Clone with SSH with the updated link. Open Git Bash and navigate to the directory in which you want to clone the repository. Again check the contents of the directory through ls command and notice the creation of the repository.
Simple, isn't it? Cloning is the core part of Git. Since GitHub brings people to come together with similar interests and contribute to each other's projects, cloning is what enables this process. Table of Contents. Git Tutorial. Next Lesson. You can use the WinSPC program. Its access to any server is pretty easy. The program gives its guide too. I hope it's helpfull. If you want download your project by Clone URL : you can use command line git clone.

You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not provide shell access. Different methods use ssh, ftp or http protocol to achieve the same. I prefer SSH method since there's increased level of security while moving your data. This is probably my favorite when moving files from one box to another. The general syntax is; scp from-source to-destination e. If you are copying directory, don't forget to add the -r option. If you wish to specify ssh port of the remote server, then add the -P option notice it's uppercase.
So if I were copying a directory from remote box whose ssh port is to my local machine, then that would be;. You'll be prompted for ssh password eachtime you make the transfer. However, if you setup passwordless ssh, then you won't be prompted everytime.
It would have been my favorite if it wasn't for some potentially dangerous gotcha newbie might fall for I'll discuss later. It doesn't copy the entire directory eachtime you initiate a transfer. Therefore it's best for incremental backups and pushing website or application code changes to production box.
It's sort like git but without version control. It's really cool. Now if you are copying files within the same machine or from an external hard drive to your machine, you could use rsync plainly the way you use cp. But if you wish to copy files from remote pc whose ssh port is , then you cause ssh together with rync to achieve this like this;. If you are syncing remote directory with local one, then use the same syntax except add a leading slash at the end of directory path of the source directory like this;.
So very careful about the ordering of the directories. My good-old-friend ftp is still very much used today as it was in the beginning of the internet days. FTP uses plain-text authentication by default, however, today there are ftp implementation that use SSL protocol such as ftps or sftp to add an added layer of protection. I encourage you to use either of them.
Web developers and web hosting companies majorly like to use ftp for file transfer. Devs default to using a multitude of ftp clients to copy files. My favorite ftp client is Filezilla which is pretty awesome, but there are alternatives in the wild such as;.
When you want to copy files from one remote server to another remote one, then you might not have the option of using GUI ftp apps unless you first download to your local machine then re-upload to the destination box. To save time and bandwidth, I use ftp commandline client. That will copy remote ftp directory from my-remote-box. This really is a pro-tip since unfortunately ftp commandline won't recursively copy directories. The amazing wget is the download manager that rules them all.
Nothing beats wget when you want to copy files from remote box to localhost. The only challenge is that you can't move from localhost to remote though. It's a one-way trip, but an awesome trip nonetheless. But, if you know about Pipe or Pipeline , then it becomes quite easy. Worst method probably is using scp. We can not say that we are using SSH, the Terminal software only remaining the same.
Here is example :. This cheating answer is usually found on Question-Answer websites. Piping is the right, genuine pure SSH way :.
