The command "dolt clone --branch ${branch_name} ${repository_url}" is used to clone a Dolt repository at a specific branch.
Here is a breakdown of the command and its components:
- "dolt clone": This is the command to clone a Dolt repository. "Dolt" is a version-controlled system designed to store tabular data, similar to Git for code.
- "--branch ${branch_name}": This flag specifies the branch that you want to clone. In place of "${branch_name}", you need to provide the actual branch name you want to clone.
- "${repository_url}": This is the URL of the Dolt repository that you want to clone. In place of "${repository_url}", you need to provide the actual URL of the repository you want to clone.
By using this command with the appropriate branch name and repository URL, you can clone a specific Dolt repository branch to your local machine.
