I'ts not back to 2.0, but back to when DFBSD was forked even. Simon took care of doing a good job w/ the CVS -> git conversion. > > Currently, typing "make src-create" will clone the entire repository, > which is currently at 306.8K objects and has a download of 229MB (and > 226K deltas). > > I created a patch that adds makefile option "make src-create-shallow" > which will set the fetch depth to 1.

If you don't need history at all, you can always grab the latest source code from: http://island.quantumachine.net/pub/DragonFlyBSD/snapshots/src/src-Devel.tar.bz2 > > I know 43 MB doesn't seem like a whole lot, but some people don't fast > internet connections and don't have commit authority, so this shallow > pull might be desirable for them.
