Hi all, 

Under the Git Plugin Performance Improvement Project 
<https://www.jenkins.io/blog/2020/07/09/git-performance-improvement-phase1/>, 
we have created an extension point which upon implementation can provide 
the functionality of querying the size of a remote git repository. 

The reason to ask for the size of remote repository is to use heuristics 
coded in the git plugin to make an optimal choice of git implementation 
("git" or "jgit"). (There is a positive correlation between size of a 
repository and performance of certain git operations)

Concerns: 
- Would plugins like github-branch-source-plugin 
<https://github.com/jenkinsci/github-branch-source-plugin> or 
gitlab-branch-source-plugin 
<https://github.com/jenkinsci/gitlab-branch-source-plugin> be interested in 
implementing this extension point? 
- As a starting point, I would like to contribute an implementation of this 
extension point on github-branch-source-plugin 
<https://github.com/jenkinsci/github-branch-source-plugin> if they agree to 
it. I would like to know the right place within the plugin where I can do 
this. (This would speed up the process)

Thanks,
Rishabh Budhouliya
