Is it possible to git clone --filter= without any objects?

At v2.19.0 I was trying to clone a fetch just a single directory: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/600079/how-do-i-clone-a-subdirectory-only-of-a-git-repository/52269934#52269934 I got really close with: git clone --depth 1 --no-checkout --filter=blob:none \ "file://$(pwd)/server_repo" local

I have a git repo with large submodules, notably the Linux kernel, and shallow clone saves a lot of time. However, QEMU is also a submodule, which I don't control, and QEMU has submodules which don't point to commits that are not on any tag or branch, so: git clone --recurse-submodules --shallow

Add an option to automatically submodule update on checkout

On hooks Git automatically prepends to the `PATH` via the `setup_path` function: - `git --exec-path` (`/usr/lib/git-core`) - the directory of `$0` (`/usr/bin`) if you call it with the full path The problem is that the `/usr/bin` breaks "interpreter version manager systems" like RVM, rbenv, virtua
