Fetch branch from github

[abi]

It is not. I read handbook - and I found no explanation how to fetch 
branch and failed to achieve results tinkering options randomly :P

Here is example
https://github.com/ZoneMinder/ZoneMinder

1. Account is ZoneMinder
2. Project is ZoneMinder

I need a branch here, they have plenty of them. |GH_TAGNAME is working 
only for releases or for commit id. The latter tries master branch.|
