How to retrive a single file from github using git

You can get that file using wget:

Create a directory:
```
 mkdir mypycode
```
Change into that directory:
```
 cd mypycode
```
Identify the raw URL

Navigate to your file on github (or your git host)
Click on the Raw tab.

Use wget to download it:

 wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/r1.1/tensorflow/examples/tutorials/mnist/mnist_softmax.py

I suggest the following command :

git archive [email protected]:foo/bar.git HEAD |  tar xvf - path/to
