# git-repo-clone (grc)

The correct way to clone a git repository

## What is grc?

Git Repo Clone is a tool that leverages the power of fuzzy finding with searches

on the Github API. This allows for finding the exact repository you're looking

for even if you don't know the exact name of the repo or owner and then fuzzing

finding on those results.

(Note: The gif is out of date. The way to pass git flags is now by prefacing them with `-g` as shown in the help menu)

## Usage

Git must be installed. Use `grc --help`

```

USAGE:

    grc [OPTIONS] [repository] [SUBCOMMAND]

ARGS:

        The repository name to search for

OPTIONS:

    -g, --git ...             All additional git args. After all other options pass `-g`

                                        and then the git args. Eg `grc rust -g --bare`

    -h, --help                          Print help information

    -l, --limit                  The number of repositories to query and list: default=30

    -n, --new                 A custom name for renaming the repository

    -o, --owner                  The owner account to search through

    -O, --ownersearch     Search for an owner if the exact name isn't known and get

                                        their repos

    -p, --path                    The full path to the parent folder to clone into

    -V, --version                       Print version information

SUBCOMMANDS:

    default-config    Configure your defaults

```

### Configuring defaults

```

USAGE:

    grc default-config --username  --path 

OPTIONS:

    -h, --help                   Print help information

    -p, --path       The default path to clone repositories into when none is specified.

                                 If this is blank and none is specified it will clone into the

                                 current folder

    -u, --username     The default username to search for when no other search parameters

                                 are given

```
