Subject: Would it make sense to add `--depth=0` feature?
Message-ID: <CA+dhYEXDsgnmKTf9OW+_QTPkcVkfm99ffWOYdum7uUTnvaaCeA@mail.gmail.com>

Would it be feasible/sensical to support clone/fetch with --depth=0?
The point is to download the tags/commit objects but not the actual
trees and blobs,
creating a "ledger" acting as a promise for the remote'e repo content?

Is there some estimation of the effort required to do such thing?

Best,
  Kostis
