Hello, I'm using git clone --reference, it works like a charm ! Now, I have submodules, so I call git clone with both --recursive and --reference, works only for the repo itself, submodules are being cloned without the "--reference" option. With GIT_TRACE=1 I can see this for the initial repo: trace: built-in: git 'clone' '--recursive' '--reference' [...] And this for the submodules: trace: built-in: git 'clone' '-n' [...] for every submodules. Is this an intended behavior ? How can I force the clones for submodules to be executed with the --reference option ? I tried to wrap /usr/lib/git-core/git-clone, but GIT_TRACE states it, it's a builtin and indeed my wrapped version of git clone is not executed !
