NAME

       gh-repo-clone - Clone a repository locally

SYNOPSIS

       gh repo clone <repository> [<directory>] [-- <gitflags>...]

DESCRIPTION

       Clone a GitHub repository locally. Pass additional git clone flags by listing them after --.

       If  the  OWNER/  portion of the OWNER/REPO repository argument is omitted, it defaults to the name of the
       authenticating user.

       If the repository is a fork, its parent repository will be added  as  an  additional  git  remote  called
       upstream.  The  remote  name  can be configured using --upstream-remote-name.  The --upstream-remote-name
       option supports an @owner value which will name the remote after the owner of the parent repository.

       If the repository is a fork, its parent repository will be set as the default remote repository.

OPTIONS

       -u, --upstream-remote-name <string> (default "upstream")
              Upstream remote name when cloning a fork
