%X We theoretically determine the Ginzburg-Landau slopes of the anisotropic upper critical magnetic field in a quasi-one-dimensional superconductor and correct the previous works on this issue. By using the experimentally measured values of the Ginzburg-Landau slopes in the superconductor (TMTSF)$_2$ClO$_4$, we determine band parameters of its electron spectrum. Our main result is that the so-called quantum dimensional crossover has to happen in this material in magnetic fields, $H = 3-8 \ T$, which are much lower than the previously assumed. We discuss how this fact influences metallic and superconducting properties of the (TMTSF)$_2$ClO$_4$.
