The following issue has been SUBMITTED. ====================================================================== http://www.cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=15590 ====================================================================== Reported By: Daniele E. Domenichelli Assigned To: Daniele E. Domenichelli ====================================================================== Project: CMake Issue ID: 15590 Category: Modules Reproducibility: always Severity: tweak Priority: low Status: assigned ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 2015-05-28 16:27 CEST Last Modified: 2015-05-28 16:27 CEST ====================================================================== Summary: ExternalProject inits all submodules Description: At the moment ExternalProject is initializing all the submodules of a git repository, even if the user only wants to checkout a subset of submodules.
With this patch, it initializes only the selected submodules, reducing the waiting time for repositories with many submodules (such as https://github.com/boostorg/boost). Topic: ExternalProject_init_selected_submodules ExternalProject: Init only selected git submodules http://www.cmake.org/gitweb?p=stage/cmake.git;a=commitdiff;h=6d5aded I'm not the author of the patch (as you can see from git commit author). It looks good to me, since the "git submodule update" already downloads only the selected submodules. ====================================================================== Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 2015-05-28 16:27 Daniele E.
