Description

g.download.project  downloads  an  archived  (e.g., .zip or .tar.gz) project (previously called location)
       from a given URL and unpacks it to a specified or current GRASS GIS Spatial Database.  URL can be also  a
       local  file  on  the disk.  If the archive contains a directory which contains a project, the module will
       recognize that and use the project automatically.  The first directory which is a project is used.  Other
       projects or any other files are ignored.
