github - Command to get/clone a fetch/pull/read -only copy of a git repository?

Question

Here's a git repository on github:

git://github.com/Fudge/gltail.git

What's the simplest way to check out a read-only copy using the git command line tool?

update: Here's a suggestion to the githubbers: Do something similar to google code, which automatically displays a message such as:

Use this command to anonymously check out the latest project source code:
    # Non-members may check out a read-only working copy anonymously over HTTP.
    svn checkout http://orapig.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ orapig-read-only

update: The githubbers have done this.
