How to fetch all Git branches

Question

I cloned a Git repository, which contains about five branches. However, when I do git branch I only see one of them:

$ git branch
* master
         


        

Answer 1

Have tried many ways, only this one is simple and works for me.

for branch in $(git ls-remote -h git@.git | awk '{print $2}' | sed 's:refs/heads/::')
do
  git checkout "$branch"
  git pull
done
