dolt-clone: Clone a repository, using an AWS credentials type.
$ dolt clone --aws-creds-type ${credentials_type} ${repository_url}
try on your machine

The command "dolt clone" is used to create a local copy of a Dolt database repository. Dolt is a version-controlled database that brings the benefits of Git version control to SQL databases.

In this specific command:

  • "--aws-creds-type" specifies the type of AWS credentials to use for cloning the repository. The "${credentials_type}" placeholder should be replaced with the desired type, such as "shared", "env", or "process".
  • "${repository_url}" is the URL of the Dolt repository you want to clone. It could be an HTTPS or SSH URL pointing to a DoltHub repository, or a local file path.

Essentially, this command is used to clone a Dolt database repository using AWS credentials of a specific type, such as shared, environment variables, or process-level credentials.
