DESCRIPTION
-----------
-n::
No checkout of HEAD is performed after the clone is complete.
+--naked::
+ Make a 'naked' GIT repository. That is, instead of
+ creating `<directory>` and placing the administrative
+ files in `<directory>/.git`, make the `<directory>`
+ itself the `$GIT_DIR`. This implies `-n` option.
+
-o <name>::
Instead of using the branch name 'origin' to keep track
of the upstream repository, use <name> instead. Note
$ git show-branch
