Vladimir Kotikov commented on CB-11144:
---------------------------------------
I think it is safe until we're not going to check out a specific commit for
this repo. In this case we do need to clone the whole history and then do 'git
checkout <SHA>'.
Though, if branch or tag is specified as a git ref, we do not need for the
history, since we could use '--branch' flag for 'git clone'
> Make Git fetches faster for plugin, platforms, and templates by using --depth
> 1

> Key: CB-11144
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-11144
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: CLI
> Reporter: Carlos Santana
> Assignee: Carlos Santana
>
> Some users are complaining that some plugin git repos are too big, and the
> plugin is not available thru npm
> So people installing the plugin it can take up to 20 minutes to install a
> plugin because Cordova CLI it's doing a full git clone of the repo.
> I was wondering if the flag --depth 1 would make it faster by fetching just
> the last copy of the repo on the specified git hash, hash can be branch, or
> tag, or commit hash
> Going to ask to the mailing list to see of using --depth 1 is a good and safe
> change?
