Anatoly Kupriyanov commented on MRELEASE-777:
---------------------------------------------
I have a project which has several thousand files in it. So even hardlinks
don't do the job significantly faster. And there is no way to tell the plugin
to pull changes instead of cloning them. As I see in the source code, the
release plugin v2.4 deletes the checkout directory first
(CheckoutProjectFromScm.java:199), and it means that clone will be commenced
always. The "git clean" should be used to create an clean copy to build.
> release plugin shouldn't git clone if the SCM is git
