We always clone a full repository. This is counter productive and wasteful. Allow users to specify that they are using kpd to help test patches for a git tree which we should expect a mirror on a target mirror path. Optionally, we also allow users to clarify that their target git tree is a linux clone, and in such cases we can always fallback to looking for a mirror path with the "linux.git" name. So for example, all kdevops enterprise deployments can easily profit from this as kdevops has support to mirror all target git trees it supports under /mirror/ through an NFS export for clients. And so small thing guests can be used for kpd instances, which can leverage this NFS export. This allows kpd to be run on smaller guests with less storage needs. This should allow more than one kpd instance to run on small guests too. Generated-by: ChatGPT Codex Signed-off-by: Luis Chamberlain <[email protected]>
