I Initially looked for using wget, but as explained at
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25374358/using-wget-to-download-an-entire-folder-from-github#answer-25379181
bq. The github webpage is just a "frontend" to the git code. To access the
code, you need to either access the github link via GIT, or you can download
the various released versions of the software from the Releases page of
onepage-scroll.
There are also tools to manually download directories as archives, like
https://minhaskamal.github.io/DownGit/#/home
But I guess we don't want to be dependent of such tools, even if users are free
to do what they want.
I tried several ways in main build.gradle following links at bottom of
https://github.blog/2023-01-20-sunsetting-subversion-support/
I stumbled upon the problem of changing the working dir with Gradle. Using "cd"
does not work, and using workingdir as suggested at
https://docs.gradle.org/current/dsl/org.gradle.api.tasks.Exec.html works but
then I was unable to make git works in this environnemt. I tried several
possible combinations, like prefixing 'git' command with 'cmd' command. It then
works but w/out results :/ [^build.gradle.notworking]
So I decided to use a simple way: script files. For now only the Windows
scritps exist:
Unlike a normal checkout, sparse-checkout needs a specific syntax to create
branches. Trunk is created by default. Here is the way, eg : {{git switch -c
release18.12 --track origin/release18.12}}

I already have a replacement for the pullPluginSource task, see
