Re: [jgit-dev] ColneCommand won't clone all branches

[Ketan Padegaonkar <ketanpadegaonkar@xxxxxxxxx>]

My bad :(

All branches are cloned properly. I'm not describing the problem(or
the effects) correctly.

However it appears that the effect of doing a git clone --bare is not
the same as CloneComand:

Here's how I reproduce it:

When cloned using jgit api:
Git repo = Git.cloneRepository().setURI("http://github.com/chalstrick/mergeExample.git";)
		.setDirectory(new File("/tmp/mergeExample.git"))
		.setBare(true)
		.setCloneAllBranches(true)
		.call();

$ cd /tmp/mergeExample.git
$ git branch
* master
$ jgit --git-dir . branch
* master

When cloned using c-git(version 1.7.5.1)
$ git clone http://github.com/chalstrick/mergeExample.git /tmp/mergeExample2.git
$ cd /tmp/mergeExample2.git
$ git branch
* master
  side
$ jgit --git-dir . branch
* master
  side

Note that git-branch and jgit-branch in this case lists out all
tracking branches, which is different when cloned using jgit.
