I have a repo in bitbucket, and i am using git.

So my branches are 

master
develop_one
develop_two

When i use git clone [email protected]:project/project.git, i am getting only the master branch code, but i need to clone/pull only develop_one branch, so how to clone/pull only develop_one branch code ?

Note: The other branches(develop_one, develop_two) are not merged in to master, and dont want to merge until the functionality has been completed actually, so want to get/clone/pull only a specific branch code

Try:

git clone [email protected]:project/project.git -b develop_one --single-branch

For already cloned repos use:

git fetch
git checkout develop_one
# Or more specific:
git checkout --track -b develop_one

This will track the develop_one branch from the remote.
