gitclone's Issues

Isnt this just downloading the zip file and unzipping it?

Downloading zip and unzipping it is not the same thing that git clone does. Once the zip is downloaded it still needs to be connected to the git src to be able to checkout and push changes etc.

get repos real name

Hi,

Could the git_clone return the repo folder real name?
There are some repos which names is not as the one shows in the link. Just as follow.
web link: https://github.com/cocos2d/cocos2d-x
The real repo name after downloaded: cocos2d-x-4
How can I get the real name properly.

Another one is when I git_clone twice continuously with the same repo link, the behaviour is not the same.
For example in python:
git_clone('https://github.com/alexanderGugel/ied')
git_clone('https://github.com/cocos2d/cocos2d-x')

The behaviours of the above repos link are not the same if I try to download them continuously twice at the same folder.

Thanks
