Try git clone -n git://git.sv.gnu.org/srv/git/lilypond.git which is a shortcut for git clone -n git://git.sv.gnu.org/srv/git/lilypond.git#master Then you'll be able if you wish to add other branches from git.sv.gnu.org to the same local repository (not with clone). Note that I don't directly use git for most commands but cogito, a high-level interface to git, so I don't guarantee the commands I give you will work, but you get the idea.
