For multiple branches try something like the following:
git clone https://github.com/dspinellis/unix-history-repo.git --depth 1 -b Epoch
Without the --depth 1 flag git insists on fetching all 1.9GB of git objects!
But +fetch= lines in .git/config's are not fixed up. As these branches are not
likely to change, that is probably ok.
Next run the following, editing out the branches you don't want.
This list is everything except FreeBSD branches. Amounts to 188MB.
