When I clone the repository using the command:

git clone -b ufs-v1.0.0.alpha02 https://github.com/ufs-community/ufs-mrweather-app.git my_ufs_sandbox

I get the following message:

Cloning into 'my_ufs_sandbox'...

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental

changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this

state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout.

 

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may

do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:

 

  git checkout -b <new-branch-name>
