              I have related question: in SVN was possible to checkout
              specific sub-directory (for example if I am interested in
              fcl-db package only I checkedout only this sub-directory).<br>
              Is it possible with gitlab? Or I must clone whole <a

          <div>There is a relatively new git feature "sparse-checkout"
            that could potentially be used in this case (I haven't
            tested this).  See e.g. <a

    Afaik that is only checkout.<br>
    You still clone the entire set of files.<br>
