Partial cloning and sparse checkout?

1

We are using a monorepo with several applications inside the same git repository.

In a blueprint, is it possible to customize the cloning step? I would like to use a combination of shallow clones and sparse checkout such as described here:

(the sparse checkout is in the video)

Thank you,

Hey Jérôme,

We already shallow clone your repo but we don’t support customizing the cloning step at this time.

I found a workaround for this. I use a staging and a deployment branch on Github.

When I push something on staging, it triggers an action that delete everything except related files in the staging branch, commit it back to the staging branch, then automatically create a pull request from staging to deployment.

Since you are already using shallow clone, I end up with only the required files being downloaded and deployed.

Thank you again
