# Clone filters (partial clone)
|
||||
|
||||
Git introduces `--filter` option to `git clone` command, which filters out
|
||||
large files and objects (such as blobs) to create partial clone of a repo.
|
||||
Clone filters are especially useful for large repo and/or metered connection,
|
||||
where full clone (without `--filter`) can be expensive (as all history data
|
||||
must be downloaded).
|
||||
|
||||
This requires Git version 2.22 or later, both on the Gitea server and on the
|
||||
client. For clone filters to work properly, make sure that Git version
|
||||
on the client is at least the same as on the server (or later). Login to
|
||||
Gitea server as admin and head to Site Administration -> Configuration to
|
||||
see Git version of the server.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, clone filters are enabled, unless `DISABLE_PARTIAL_CLONE` under
|
||||
`[git]` is set to `true`.
|
||||
|
||||
See [GitHub blog post: Get up to speed with partial clone](https://github.blog/2020-12-21-get-up-to-speed-with-partial-clone-and-shallow-clone/)
|
||||
for common use cases of clone filters (blobless and treeless clones), and
|
||||
[GitLab docs for partial clone](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/topics/git/partial_clone.html)
|
||||
for more advanced use cases (such as filter by file size and remove
|
||||
filters to turn partial clone into full clone).
