Each branch has its own tracking branch (upstream). So you can just
branch off of emacs-25, and either keep that local copy, or set the
upstream to your own remote repository:
$ git checkout emacs-25
$ git checkout -b foo
$ git remote add my-origin path/to/remote/repo
$ git push --set-upstream my-origin foo
This is as close to a hard-copy as you'll get.
