Yes, I do this all the time

Use 'git new-workdir'

The great thing about git is that the total repo size is much smaller 
than with most other systems.

You can also limit the total clone size,if you only wnat a limitted 
history, eg last 100 commits.

git clone --depth 100  https://github.com/FirebirdSQL/core.git

In this case the repo is only 11MB, instead of 116MB for a full clone.
