I am new to git so sorry if the question is dumb.

I have a project called helloworld a branch called newfeatures which is not origin on github. My goal is to get all the files and folders into the folder in Eclipse directory I have specified we can call it /documents/eclipse/java.

What I did was that I install git then went into the development directory and typed

git init

git clone https://githuburlhere

I now have a folder called helloworld with a bunch of git-files but I don’t see any java files from gihub. How can I get the files?

I have also tried

git pull origin newfeatures

But it said

fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository
exists.
