Moving artworks to git might be a bad idea: everytime you clone a git repository you are doing a copy of the whole repository including the history. For this reason if you plan to update frequently your artworks you should consider to keep your artworks on a svn server, so users are not forced to clone all the previous artworks.
For this reasonĀ workspace wallpapers (kdebase/workspace/wallpapers) and kdeartwork will not be moved to git. So don’t forget to continue to checkout artworks from SVN!
- You can get default base wallpapers from /trunk/KDE/kde-wallpapers/
- You can get kdeartwork from /trunk/KDE/kdeartwork/
Hello,
I am a user of SVN, but it seems that you can clone just the last revision in GIT:

If you just want to checkout the latest source code of a project which may have a very large repo, you can use
git clone –depth 1 your_repo_url

What about git clone –depth 1 ?
