git commands

I'm new to git and I wonder what is the difference between two commands:

"git clone" and "git-clone" and which one should be use?

They're the same command.  You should use the first form to actually  
run the command and the hyphenated form for consulting the manual:

	git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git

	man git-clone

You may get speedier responses to easy questions on IRC, in #git.

Cheers,
Josh

By the way, when documentation points to the latter (and is not
pointing to some man page like git-clone(1)), please feel free to let
us know, preferrably with a patch. :)  There is a history that might
have left some of the documentation inconsistent.
