Prerequisite: Set Up

The actions described in this section depend on having the requisite set of tools and settings on your development machine. See Setting Up Your Development Environment.

Using the Command Line to Clone the Repository

1. Move to the folder at the root of your development directory. For example:
   cd C:\Users\<user>\Documents\work
    
2. Add a remote pointer to the Gerrit server that hosts your repository using either SSH or HTTPS. (Note: <REPONAME>s are given in various Development Guides.
   Using SSH:
   git remote add origin ssh://USERNAME@gerrit.openecomp.org:29418/<REPONAME>
   
   Using HTTPS:
   With HTTPS, first you will need the Gerrit HTTP-generated password for each HTTPS operation with Git/Gerrit.
   
git remote add origin https://USERNAME@gerrit.openecomp.org/r/a/<REPONAME>
    
3. Now clone the remote repository. Since we clone in the current folder, it will create a subfolder with the remote copy.
   Using SSH:
   git clone ssh://USERNAME@gerrit.openecomp.org:29418/<REPONAME>
   
   Using HTTPS:
   With HTTPS, first you will need the Gerrit HTTP-generated password for each HTTPS operation with Git/Gerrit.
   
git clone https://USERNAME@gerrit.openecomp.org/r/a/<REPONAME>
