Cloning git repositories can take a very long time. Git has options that make cloning instantaneous if e.g. only one revision is required. For example: --depth 1 clones only the latest revision very fast. I would like to be able to pass options to git clone since that would significantly improve my build times, which right now spend a very long time cloning the whole history of multiple git repositories. ====================================================================== Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 2015-10-19 07:31 gonzalobg88@gmail.comNew Issue ====================================================================== -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
