Tried clicking on the shiny download button on the PV git page, that gets the master.
Forked PV tried same, still master.
Installed GitGUI (windows), used the PV Clone URL still got the master.
tried my fork Clone URL, throws an error.

How do you download a branch? the idiots guide version :(

After you clone, you can switch to the branch you want via:  git  
checkout "branchname" (not sure how you do that via gitgui).

git can be a bit hard to figure out - but man, once you do it is  
really nice.

Dumped the GUI and used the console.

//list the branches
#git branch -r

// Switch local to branch
git checkout -b origin/BSPTestOne


wooo yay.
