I've been trying to experiment with shallow clones, however I can't seem to actually create one. Here's what I've tried, for example: git clone --depth 1 git://git.fluxbox.org/fluxbox.git However, this gets me everything, and takes quite a while. After it completes, running gitk shows me the entire history, and the size of the .git directory is the same as a full clone I've done previously. I've tried this with both 1.6.0.2 and 1.6.1.3, to the same effect. Can anyone out there verify that this --depth option actually does anything? Or could it potentially be the version of git on the server? If it's not just something odd I'm doing, I can take the time to try to figure out in which version this *does* work, and when it stopped... Though others out there may be more equipped than I to chase this down. -- Jim Ramsay -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
