I tried following steps.

   * master
   user:~/U-boot/u-boot$
   

Can you please guide to get the U-boot source(version:2014, patchlevel:07) using git.

Answer 1

There seems to be a tag matching those specifications.
(see list of tags for git.denx.de/u-boot.git).

That means, once you have cloned the repo, you can do a:

cd ~/U-boot/u-boot
git checkout v2014.07

Note that it will leave you in a detached HEAD mode (see "What's the difference between “git reset” and “git checkout”?").
But if don't do any commit, this doesn't matter
