从Git存储库中分叉文件，而无需克隆存储库 [英] Fork a file from a Git repository without cloning the repository

问题描述

有没有办法在不克隆整个存储库的情况下从外部Git存储库派生文件?

Is there a way to fork a file from a foreign Git repository without cloning the whole repository?

推荐答案

最接近此效果的方法是使用此答案中借用，您可以执行以下操作:

The closest you could get to doing this is by using sparse checkout, which means using Git 1.7+ and you still need to clone the repo (or use clone's --depth option to do a shallow clone). Borrowing largely from this answer, you could do the following:

git clone --no-checkout <URL to git repo> myrepo
cd myrepo
git config core.sparseCheckout true
vim .git/info/sparse-checkout # Add files you want checked out
git checkout <branch you want>

如果您的Git版本为1.7.7-rc0或更高版本，则可以使用clone命令设置配置选项:

If you have Git version 1.7.7-rc0 or later, you can set configuration options with the clone command:

git clone --config core.sparseCheckout=true --no-checkout <URL to git repo> myrepo

此外，请参见以下内容:
