Thank you for your answer. What I meant was that the "WHATEVER" directory contained the same files as the current directory (i.e the directory where I typed "git clone"). Thus, no files from the remote repository were cloned. It seemed really weird. However I was playing around with git and finally I was able to clone remote files in a "test" location as you suggested. Thank you very much.
