Answer 1

Benjamin's right. But is that really what you want to do? In particular, you'll only get the changesets needed to make up that branch, and nothing else - and that would, for example, prevent you from pulling changesets in from the trunk or other branches. You might well be better off just cloning the entire repository and then simply working in the branch you are interested in; this will let you keep your repository in sync with the one you're pulling from more easily.
