[PATCH/RFC] submodule: add ability to shallowly clone any branch in a submodule

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently when specifying the `--depth` option to the 'submodule add'
command, it can only create a shallow submodule clone of the currently active
branch from the cloned repository. If a branch is specified using the
`--branch` command, the 'submodule add' will result in an error as the
branch will not exist in the cloned repository. Subsequently, if a
repository is cloned which contains submodules, and both the `--depth` and
`--recursive` options are specified, the top level repository will be
cloned using the specified depth, but each submodule will be cloned in
its entirety.

Added the ability to shallowly clone any branch as a submodule, not just
the current active branch from the cloned repository. Also includes the
ability to shallowly clone a repository and all its submodules.
Added support to the 'submodule add' and 'submodule update' command to handle
`--no-single-branch`, which is then passed to the clone command in order
to setup remote-tracking branches in the shallowly cloned submodules.
