Extensions/Git.Clone.Input.UGit.Extension.ps1

Synopsis

Git Clone extended input


Description

Extends the input for git clone.

By default, if –progress is not found, it will be added to any git clone.


Examples

EXAMPLE 1

git clone https://github.com/MDN/content.git # This is a big repo.  Progress bars will be very welcome.

If we don’t check things out, cloning is faster.

git clone https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell -NoCheckout 
# (of course, that's because we're not copying files, just history)

We can also clone more quickly by only picking a certain number of commits

git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode.git -Depth 1
# (of course, this will make the history lie to you,
# by saying everything was changed whenever anything was changed)

Parameters

NoCheckout

If set, will not check out files from the respository.

Type Required Position PipelineInput
[Switch] false named true (ByPropertyName)

Sparse

Employ a sparse-checkout. Only files in the toplevel directory will be present by default. Sparse checkout can be configured with git sparse-checkout.

Type Required Position PipelineInput
[Switch] false named true (ByPropertyName)

Depth

Create a shallow clone with a history truncated to the specified number of commits

Type Required Position PipelineInput

Type Required Position PipelineInput
[DateTime] false named true (ByPropertyName)

Filter

One or more filters

[String[]] false named true (ByPropertyName)

Nothing

If set, will clone nothing. This means not checking out, filtering everything from the tree, and using sparse checkout

Type Required Position PipelineInput Aliases
[Switch] false named true (ByPropertyName) None
