I am new to Git. I want to clone a large remote repository lets say xyzcodebase
. The structure of repo is like I have src folders for different functional areas as shown below.
xyzcodebase
|
|__ Func area 1
|
|__ Func area 2
I work on Functional area 2
hence while cloning I don't want code from Functional area 1
(large size) which will save lots of my time. So that after cloning I will have only Functional area 2
source code on my local repository.
Is there a way to accomplish such selective cloning of git repository?
Thanks in advance for your help
