<p>I'm not sure it is already available in gitlab and gitlab-ce, but if available it would be a lot faster to clone the repository containing kde-org decreasing the problem that we have aout the huge repository size. This could be also used for faster cloning in the CI.</p></div></div><br /><div><strong>TASK DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/T12058">https://phabricator.kde.org/T12058</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>ognarb<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>nalvarez, aspotashev, aacid, bcooksley, sysadmin, kde-www, ognarb, fbampaloukas, GB_2, sdepiets, Anachronox, skadinna, huftis, pshinjo, jriddell, sheedy, lydia, ochurlaud, kvermette, duffus<br /></div>
