I have this file structure:

folderIWantStuffIn/
  - old_stuff

Now I want to add some new stuff that is in a git repo. I'd like to be able to use git clone and git pull right in the directory and get this:

folderIWantStuffIn/
  - old_stuff
  - new_stuff

When I use git clone, I get this:

folderIWantStuffIn/
  - old_stuff
  - NewStuffFolder/
      - new_stuff

Are there flags I can pass into git clone to get this behavior?
