f clone

Clone a repository with git-like destination behavior.

Overview

f clone behaves like git clone for destination paths:

  • f clone <url> clones into the current working directory using Git's default folder naming.
  • f clone <url> <dir> clones into an explicit destination directory.

For GitHub inputs, Flow normalizes clone URLs to SSH:

  • https://github.com/owner/repo -> git@github.com:owner/repo.git
  • owner/repo -> git@github.com:owner/repo.git

This command does not force clones into ~/repos and does not auto-configure upstream.

Usage

f clone <url-or-owner/repo> [directory]

Examples

# GitHub URL -> SSH clone URL
f clone https://github.com/genxai/new

# owner/repo shorthand -> SSH clone URL
f clone genxai/new

# explicit destination folder (same as git clone)
f clone genxai/new my-local-new

When To Use

  • Use f clone when you want standard git clone destination behavior.
  • Use f repos clone when you want managed placement under ~/repos/<owner>/<repo> plus optional upstream automation.
