Oh, I see the --no-single-branch bit now. Sigh, another confusing Git default. Even so, it still doesn’t quite do what I want: - I want to give --depth in days, not checkins. - I want to allow the cloned-from repository to set a sensible default, so that very large repos can require that cloners specify something like --deep to get everything. Personally, I don’t need this for my own repositories. I’m just putting out ideas to handle extremely large repos. As for my second point above, I’d have been happy if the Linux kernel source repo I checked out onto a Raspberry Pi had only given me the past 30 days or so, without me having to know about --depth. I only wanted --depth=1 anyway. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
