git-clone:tldr:d3036

This command is used in Git to create a copy of a remote repository on your local machine. Here's the breakdown of the command:

• git clone: This is the command itself, which is used to create a clone or copy of a repository.
• --recursive: This is an optional flag that specifies that the clone should also include all the submodules of the repository. Submodules are separate repositories that are embedded within the main repository.
• ${remote_repository_location}: This is a placeholder for the actual URL or path of the remote repository. You need to replace it with the specific location of the repository you want to clone. The location can be a URL such as a GitHub repository URL or a local path on your machine.

To use this command, you would open your command-line interface (such as Git Bash, Command Prompt, or Terminal), navigate to the directory where you want to create the clone, and then execute the git clone command with the appropriate flags and repository location. The command will initiate the cloning process and create a new directory that contains a copy of the remote repository files, including any submodules if the --recursive flag is used.
