things will be easier than you think, after getting used to it.

configure git as described here:
http://community.kde.org/Sysadmin/GitKdeOrgManual#Let_Git_rewrite_URL_prefixes
(the latest git 1.7.12 prefers .git/config over .gitconfig)

git clone kde:kgoldrunner

git branch -a

shows you all branches

git checkout qgv

will set your working directory to head of qgv branch
