Cloning Repository

You have a GitHub repository in the cloud. Every team member should clone this repository.
That means they should take a copy of this repository and put it on their machine.
Locally, user will work with that repository. And when they're ready to share their changes, they will push their commits to this central repository.

git clone url
git clone url ProjectName (to rename the project)

Git is going to create a directory by the same name, the same name as our repository.
git clone our entire repository. So all the commits in the central repository also exist here on my machine.
You have head pointing to master. and we have these two pointers in origin/master and origin/head
When we clone a repository, git names the source repository origin. So origin is a reference to that repository.
origin/master tells us where is the master branch in that repository, because now we have multiple repositories, and the history in each repository can evolve independently.
origin/master is called a remote tracking branch.
origin/head tells us where's the head pointer in our origin repository.

git remote

shows the list of remote repositories. A remote repository is a repository that is not on our machine more accurately, it's not in the current directory. So currently, we have only a single remote repository, that is our origin repository.
