Cloning the usrp3 GIT repository on windows

To be able to build custom FPGA image for the USRP3, the first step is to copy (clone) the source code from the ETTUS repository. There are several methods to use git on windows. In this mini article, the fpga source code for OpenBTS will be fetched from https://github.com/EttusResearch/fpga/tree/master.
 
Step 1:
Install GIT client  msysgit from https://msysgit.github.io/.  The downloaded file will have a name similar to "Git-1.9.4-preview20140929".




Step 2: Open GIT GUI

 

Step 3: Choose to clone a repository



Step 4: 
Copy the repository location from "https://github.com/EttusResearch/fpga/tree/master" into your local machine in a path such as "C:/localrepo".


 

Step 5: Be patient because this screen will be displayed more than 10 minutes, depending on the internet connection.





Step 6: All done, check your local computer to check that the remote repository is copied (cloned). Note that the loca-repo below is ../code/fpga-git/feb. As we mentioned earlier, any name works.
