Answer 1

This isn't too much complicated, very simple and straight forward steps are as follows:

After cloning the repo, run $ cd myproject

git branch -a This will show you all the remote branches.

$ git branch -a
* master
  remotes/origin/HEAD
  remotes/origin/master
  remotes/origin/v1.0-stable
  remotes/origin/experimental

If you want to work on remote branch, you'll need to create a local tracking branch:

$ git checkout -b experimental origin/experimental

Verify whether you are in the desired branch by the following command;

$ git branch

The output will like this;

*experimental
master
some branch2
some branch3 

Notice the * sign that denotes the current branch.
