Prerelease: no

Release notes:

Minor Changes

  • de39f3a: Add support for vendoring a subset of very large upstream repos:
  • sparsePaths — vendor multiple upstream directories via sparse-checkout (identity-mapped, so each keeps its repo-relative path under the local path). Mutually exclusive with subDir. When set, the clone uses --no-checkout so the whole default branch isn't materialized before sparse-checkout narrows it.
  • cloneFilter — partial-clone filter (default blob:none); set tree:0 to also defer trees, which with sparsePaths shrinks the initial clone of a huge repo by orders of magnitude.
  • First-time syncs from an empty commit are now supported as a direct import (no base, no merge).
