-clone

Repotools command that creates a clone of a repository.

Purpose

The clone command duplicates a repository database via a TAR file. Do not use the clone command to copy data from one repository database to another; use the copy command for those use cases. A legitimate use case for the clone command is if you need to work around the limitation of 250 developer licenses per Jazz™ Team Server. See the Technote at jazz.net that describes how to use the clone command to work around the 250 developer license limitation.
