Your example command will do exactly what you said. It will take the contents of the "angular-seed" repository and put its contents into a new folder called newProject. It will also set up the git structure in the newProject folder to track back to the github.com/angular-seed.gitrepository. So that you can upgrade using the normal "git pull" in the "newProject" folder.
