--- Comment #1 from Ori Livneh <o...@wikimedia.org> --- git-clone was in fact shallow prior to Gerrit change I9742facc6, and the setting was parametrized prior to I4c475126a. One issue with shallow clones is that git-review will pull the entire history anyway, except it will do so silently, and at point in time where the user is not expecting it (that is, upon patch submission). Another thing to consider is the reason Git is so slow. Network costs are only a part of the story. Until the user runs 'update-guest-additions', the VM will run with an old version of VirtualBox Guest Additions, and thus an older implementation of VirtualBox Shared Folders, the filesystem driver used to share a path between guest and host; its performance is abysmal, especially when creating lots of small files. It'd probably be good to re-parametrize the clone depth; I'm not sure why I removed the parameter, to be honest. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
