Well, back to a full clone. Thanks for the "--unshallow" argument, but so far it has failed twice. I suspect that it's my urtwn interface is bad. I'll swap it out tomorrow and see it that fixes it. I am a bit surprised at how little more space the full clone takes. I was really expecting it to be much worse. Of course, it will only grow... as will the sources, themselves. Warner, I suggest an immediate update to your mini-git primer. It was already a bit out of date, but this fix is more urgent with RC on the horizon. In particular, the "Repositories" at least look old to me. -- Kevin Oberman, Part time kid herder and retired Network Engineer E-mail: rkoberman@gmail.com PGP Fingerprint: D03FB98AFA78E3B78C1694B318AB39EF1B055683 On Fri, Feb 26, 2021 at 10:55 AM Ed Maste <emaste@freebsd.org> wrote: > On Fri, 26 Feb 2021 at 12:10, Helge Oldach <freebsd@oldach.net> wrote: > > > > A shallow tree is about 1.6G.
