git clone --filter 从Git 2.19
该选项实际上将跳过从服务器获取大多数不需要的对象的操作：
git clone --depth 1 --no-checkout --filter=blob:none \
"file://$(pwd)/server_repo" local_repo
cd local_repo
git checkout master -- mydir/myfile
服务器应配置为：
git config --local uploadpack.allowfilter 1
git config --local uploadpack.allowanysha1inwant 1
从v2.19.0开始，没有服务器支持，但是已经在本地进行了测试。
TODO：--filter=blob:none跳过所有blob，但仍获取所有树对象。但是在普通的仓库中，与文件本身相比，它应该很小，所以已经足够了。在以下位置进行询问：https: //www.spinics.net/lists/git/msg342006.html开发人员回答说，--filter=tree:0正在这样做。
请记住，这--depth 1已经暗示了--single-branch，另请参见：如何在Git中克隆单个分支？
file://$(path)需要克服git clone协议诡计：如何使用相对路径浅克隆本地git存储库？
的格式--filter记录在上man git-rev-list。
对Git远程协议进行了扩展以支持此功能。

结论：除所有斑点外d1/a均缺失。例如f70a17f51b7b30fec48a32e4f19ac15e261fd1a4，d1/b结帐后不存在d1/。
请注意，root/root并且mybranch/mybranch也丢失了，但是--depth 1将其从丢失的文件列表中隐藏了。如果删除--depth 1，则它们将显示在丢失文件的列表中。
