From: Ittay Dror Date: Tue, 08 Apr 2008 19:08:57 GMT Subject: question about git and remote repositories Message-ID: <47FBC2C9.6060702@tikalk.com> Hi, If I want to start working on a project that uses git (and I want to use git also), I first need to clone the project's repo. That is very slow (using the git:// protocol). Are there alternatives? For example, as far as I understand, if all I want is to get the latest commit in HEAD, branch from it and start working, then all git really needs to have is all objects referenced from that commit (commit, trees, blobs) and that's it, right? (as long as I don't expect to see full log of past operations) Thanks, Ittay -- Ittay Dror Tikal Tikal Project
