git initI am just looking for the best way, to get one directory out of a git repo, so I can perform actions on our files that we have committed. You can now checkout certain folders from a repository. With the command line git.exe, I have been able to perform this exact task(but I think it creates repo locally, it just doesn't have anything in that repo except this one directory. With the new sparse checkout feature in Git 1.7.0, is it possible to just get the contents of a subdirectory like how you can in SVN I found this example. If there is another way to get that specific directory out, I am all for it, but I haven't been able to find a way to do that.
Git sparse checkout code#
Attribution The code in these projects are included only as example content, and does not actually represent a real microservices-in-monorepo example. Open Git shell for projects workspace folder. Each will launch the git sparse-checkout set command to show only the directories needed for those teams. From my understanding, to do so in git, you would use the sparse checkout. Open projectss workspace folder, delete everything there except. Basically, I don't need the git repo stuff, I need the files in that location, and only that location, so I can run scanners on them. I am basically looking for the the git equivalent of SVN export on a specific directory. I am not wanting to have a local copy of the repository, as that would require large amounts of disk space. Yes, what I am needing is the ability to get one directory out of github, without bringing the whole repository down locally first.
