Cloning a Project

The g3t clone command is used to clone a project from the remote repository. Here's a brief explanation of what happens when you use g3t clone:

• A subdirectory is created for the project, it is named after the project_id.
• The project is initialized locally, including the .g3t and META directories.
• The current metadata is downloaded from the remote repository.
• By default, data files are not downloaded by default:
• Use the --data_type all option to specify all files will be downloaded.
