Git-ing a branch from GitHub

I want to clone this edge branch of a github repo.

The following command is identically listed in the readme for both master and edge

git clone --depth 1 git://github.com/bborn/communityengine.git vendor/plugins/community_engine

How do I specify to git that I want the edge branch?

just add a -b for branch

git clone --depth 1 git://github.com/bborn/communityengine.git vendor/plugins/community_engine -b edge

Then you'll have a folder called vendor/, and doing 'git branch' will show you the edge branch.
