If I use the green Code button here https://github.com/HL7/fhir/tree/R4B, my desktop client wants to get https://github.com/hl7/fhir. That doesn't seem to be the R4b branch. If I use "Download ZIP" on the same green button, it does get the R4B branch. So how do I do a regular clone of the R4B branch?

I think that you need to get the whole thing locally, and do git checkout R4B to get to the R4B branch...

That seems to be it! thanks Vassil

You can also clone a single branch, should be something like git clone --single-branch --branch R4B https://github.com/hl7/fhir, IIRC

edit: e.g., if you have the full repo in another location and just want that branch somewhere else
