Shallow clones

We're not talking about Jango Fett's performance. git shallow clones allow application servers and developers to avoid pulling the full history.

Here's how you can try it:

1. Install git 1.9 or later. Check with git --version
2. When you clone, add the --depth=1 option: git clone --depth=1 <repository>
3. Everything else about your workflow shouldn't change at all as long as you don't need older history.

Cloning the repository for getpantheon.com (a normal Panopoly/Drupal 7 site) normally takes 2.5 minutes and 62 MiB. A shallow clone takes 1 minute and 29 MiB.
