How to restore the aborted or interrupted "git clone"?

I tried to clone a git repository from github, but suddenly aborted after pulling about about 60%. Redoing this will be pain because it downloaded around 1.5GiB of content.

Is there any way to clone it from the point where it aborted ?

I also had the same issue. But it was once I press Ctrl+c . Then I tried with below, and it worked for me. But I done know what its real impact is. Just try and let us know.

put below where you want to resume.

git checkout master -- .
