A simple shell script to simplify the cloning process.

clone.sh

if (( $# == 1 )); then
    # if only one argument is given (that is that directory = name of repo)
    git clone $1
    repo=$1
    repo2arr=(${repo//// }) # split string into list by `/`
    gitname=${repo2arr[-1]} # get last value
    git2arr=(${gitname//./ }) # split by `.`
    name=${git2arr[0]} # get first place
    echo "Created repo at $name"
    cd $name # move into directory
fi
if (( $# == 2 )); then
    # if two arguments are used
    git clone $1 $2
    cd $2
fi

I guess the best way to code this is as follows:

In your ~/.bashrc:

function clone() {
    if (( $# == 1 )); then
        git clone $1
        repo=$1
        repo2arr=(${repo//// })
        gitname=${repo2arr[-1]}
        git2arr=(${gitname//./ })
        name=${git2arr[0]}
        echo "Created repo at $name"
        cd $name
    fi
    if (( $# == 2 )); then
        git clone $1 $2
        cd $2
    fi
}

export -f clone

Then in Git Bash:

$ clone git_url.git <name of directory (optional)>

Hi, how are you I hope you doing well? I did grab some of the scripts but I find 12 errors during the paste back to my VS code.
But yes I love to automatize processes.

May I clarify as to which OS you are currently operating on? This is, of course, a very Bash-focused thing. I use Windows, so I have been adapting it to Git Bash, but it's possible that it's not exactly applicable for other OS .bashrcs.
