A developer is working on an existing feature that needs enhancing. The primary production branch for the application is 'prim4a3b8c6d80374' and the branch for working on the feature is 'feat145678909'. The developer needs to create a clone of the single branch used for the feature that only has commits included in the current line of history. Which Git command must be used?

Question

Accepted Answer

D. git clone [url] - -branch feat145678909 - -single-branch The `git clone` command with the `--branch ` option specifies which branch to check out, and the `--single-branch` option ensures that only the history of that specific branch is cloned, reducing the repository size and transfer time.

Answer

A. git clone [url] - -feat145678909 - -single-branch This option uses incorrect syntax for specifying the branch name directly after a double-hyphen, which is not how `git clone`'s `--branch` option works.

Answer

B. git clone [url] - -branch feat145678909 - -single The `--single` option is not a valid Git command line option for `git clone`; the correct option is `--single-branch`.

Answer

C. git clone [url] - -single-branch feat145678909 This option places the branch name as an argument to `--single-branch`, but the branch name should be specified using the `--branch` option.
