   Warning
   title Empty working tree case
   If Git warns you that you are cloning an empty repository and you don't see your files in the working tree, most probably the automatic branches and tags mapping didn't work correctly. In this case, mapping has to be set manually, see details on mapping in the   Branches and tags mapping.
