majiayu000 Shallow Clone
Provides a script for creating a shallow clone of a Git repository to a temporary location. This skill should be used to analyze repository contents locally instead of using web APIs.
Usage
Use the scripts/shallow-clone.sh script in this directory, for example:
./scripts/shallow-clone.sh <repository_url> [<tag_or_branch>]
The script will print the path to the cloned repository when done, for example:
$ ./scripts/shallow-clone.sh https://github.com/psf/requests.git
Cloning https://github.com/psf/requests.git (shallow, ref: HEAD) to /tmp/shallow-clone-DDqkuv...
/tmp/shallow-clone-DDqkuv/repo
After analyzing the local repository, clean up the temporary directory with:
$ rm -rf <path_to_temporary_directory>
