This will create a remote for <user>, fetch the branch into refs/remotes/<user>/<branch> and then create a local branch from that. This is good for getting an exact copy of the branch (without merging it into another branch) for local testing or inspection. 6eb418cd775e7568a9fdf7550b36cb7cba893a65 Tom Preston-Werner tom@mojombo.com
