Note to self: clone remote branch using git

By default git branch doesn’t show the remote branches for a cloned repo, so use git branch -a to see all of them and then make a local branch with a suitable name:

$ git clone git@github.com:CVL-dev/cvl-fabric-launcher.git
Cloning into 'cvl-fabric-launcher'...
