Worked on the kestra-io/plugin-git repository to deliver flexible repository cloning options, enabling users to perform single-branch clones and skip fetching tags for improved efficiency. Refactored the cloning workflow in Java to streamline refspec handling and clarify the distinction between single-branch and full-clone operations, enhancing maintainability. Comprehensive software testing was added to cover standard, single-branch, and no-tags scenarios, ensuring robust behavior across edge cases. The implementation reduced network and disk usage during cloning, resulting in faster CI and workflow execution. These changes established a more predictable and reliable cloning process, providing a solid foundation for future enhancements.
