# Checkout V2 (preview)
This action checks-out your repository under `$GITHUB_WORKSPACE`, so your workflow can access it.
By default, the repository that triggered the workflow is checked-out, for the ref/SHA that triggered the event.
Refer [here](https://help.github.com/en/articles/events-that-trigger-workflows) to learn which commit `$GITHUB_SHA` points to for different events.
Refer [here](https://github.com/actions/checkout/blob/v1/README.md) for previous versions.
# Usage
<!-- start usage -->
```yaml
- uses: actions/checkout@preview
with:
# Repository name
# Default: ${{ github.repository }}
repository: ''
# Ref to checkout (SHA, branch, tag). For the repository that triggered the
# workflow, defaults to the ref/SHA for the event. Otherwise defaults to master.
ref: ''
# Access token for clone repository
# Default: ${{ github.token }}
token: ''
# Relative path under $GITHUB_WORKSPACE to place the repository
path: ''
# Whether to execute `git clean -ffdx && git reset --hard HEAD` before fetching
# Default: true
clean: ''
# Number of commits to fetch. 0 indicates all history.
# Default: 1
fetch-depth: ''
# Whether to download Git-LFS files
# Default: false
lfs: ''
```
<!-- end usage -->
## Checkout a different branch
```yaml
- uses: actions/checkout@preview
with:
ref: some-branch
```
## Checkout a different, private repository
```yaml
- uses: actions/checkout@preview
with:
repository: myAccount/myRepository
ref: refs/heads/master
token: ${{ secrets.GitHub_PAT }} # `GitHub_PAT` is a secret that contains your PAT
```
> - `${{ github.token }}` is scoped to the current repository, so if you want to checkout another repository that is private you will need to provide your own [PAT](https://help.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/creating-a-personal-access-token-for-the-command-line).
