I'm having a question regarding the packs and the repacking of those
during cloning.
[...]
On this big repo I created various subtree branches so I can clone
some of the folders individually (without getting the whole big
thing). The problem is, however, that all my subtree clones seem to
get a copy of the big 120MB pack, only to then extract 2MB from it.
[...]
- Any idea how this could be achieved using ssh or git protocol (as
obviously I'd prefer to use those over file:// )?
- Is that "as designed" or could it be a bug in git?
Have a look at the pack protocol details for more info about those
hidden details

https://github.com/msysgit/git/blob/devel/Documentation/technical/pack-protocol.txt
AFAICT what is packed depends on what is implicitly asked for, which by
default is everything ;-)
Try to asking this question on the main (devel) Git list instead,
(which is git at vger.kernel.org) as this list is for helping newbie
Git users rather than for solving hardcore technical issues.
See http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html#git for more info.
