Question: 1 / 400

Which command is used to clone a repository in Git?

git fetch

git copy

git clone

The command used to clone a repository in Git is "git clone." This command creates a copy of a remote repository on your local machine, including all of its files, branches, and commit history. When using "git clone," you provide the URL of the repository you want to copy, and Git automatically sets up the new local repository to track the original repository, allowing for easy syncing and updates.

Using "git fetch" retrieves updates from a remote repository without merging them into your local branch. "git copy" is not a valid Git command and does not perform any repository-related tasks. Meanwhile, "git pull" combines fetching and merging updates from the remote repository into your current branch but does not create a clone. Therefore, "git clone" is the correct command to use when you want to create a local copy of an existing remote repository.
