John Yin commented on CAMEL-15051:
----------------------------------
Andrea, first thank you very much for investigating this matter and for
suggesting to use the "checkout" operation which is not mentioned in the latest
Camel GIT doc [https://camel.apache.org/components/latest/git-component.html]).
I tried the "checkout" operation which did not work as expected. Let's say the
repo that was cloned has two branches: master and branch_uat, and the master
branch is behind the branch_uat. When the clone is done, the master branch is
checked out and the origin/branch_uat is "hidden" in the local repository.
After running the checkout operation, a local branch branch_uat is created by
Camel GIT but it is based on the master branch (thus behind the
origin/branch_uat). Even if I do another pull operation on the branch_uat, it
still does not advance the branch_uat to the origin/branch_uat. So I am
essentially stuck with the master branch.
I will try any other workaround that you may suggest, but also look forward to
the permanent fix in 3.4.0.
Thanks!

> Project: Camel
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: camel-git
> Affects Versions: 3.2.0
> Environment: This was tested on Windows 10 Pro with Camel 3.2.0
> (Spring Boot 2.2.6) against GitHub.
> Reporter: John Yin
> Assignee: Andrea Cosentino
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 3.4.0
>
>
> When cloning a repository from a server (tested with GitHub) with the
> following Camel endpoint/options:
> git:///F:\localpath?operation=clone&remotePath=[https://github.com/xxxxxxxx/cust-ir.git&username=xxxxxxxx&password=yyyyyyyy&remoteName=origin&branchName=branch_uat&synchronous=true]
> The remote repository was correctly cloned to the localpath, but the branch
> specified is not created locally and not checked out. The localpath working
> copy is the master branch. Since Camel GIT does not have a checkout command,
> one would have to manually checkout the branch thus defeat the purpose of
> using the component.
