I have a project "A" that is a Git repository. I would like to be able to make multiple copies of project A (B and C), and modify them for clients.

"A" is the master so sometimes when I do new functionality i would like to be able to pull them into B or C. But some commits should just stay in A and only be used if making a new clone.

How do I do that with Git? That is:

  • how to copy A? (Clone?)
  • how to get specific commits into B and C?

Please keep in mind that this all happening locally - not on GitHub. I use OS X.
