Faithfully clone a github repository
I am trying to clone the Caffe SSD implementation: https://github.com/weiliu89/caffe/tree/ssd
So I run:
$ git clone https://github.com/weiliu89/caffe.git
$ ls caffe
and get the expected output, a list of the top level files, as seen on the github web interface.
but if I explore deeper, e.g.:
$ ls caffe/docker/
cpu gpu README.md
I get different files/folders to those appearing on the web interface (https://github.com/weiliu89/caffe/tree/ssd/docker).
How can I fix this?

That is what I see in the web interface: github.com/weiliu89/caffe/tree/master/docker. Are you sure you're comparing the correct branches?
