Git download only one directory

For a file, you would probably want a different approach, like a Download button on the file page such as https: Whether you are downloading a folder or an individual file, the download link should be in the same place.

When I want to get updated files from similar repositories I'd prefer to browse in GitLab in the other project and right-click on every file I want to have on "Raw" - button "Save as". Can I download a whole folder instead of the whole repository as e. Downloading the whole respository would require several Gigabytes!

I hear what you are saying mydigitalself and still feel that the download placement should remain consistent for files and folders. I thought it would download just the directory, but it downloaded the whole repository. I ended git download only one directory downloading just the file I needed. This time I was lucky i just needed one file.

It's git download only one directory only possible to download the entire repository as a zip file. In git download only one directory situations, it may git download only one directory desirable to download just a portion folder of the repository as a zip file. When outside of the root folder, the download button should display the following options:. Download zip Download tar. This is using a similar approach to the additional functionality on the plus button where the context is highlighted by a group header.

I think that is a simple, consistent solution mydigitalself. There is a similar issue dealing with individual files,do we want to include it at that level? That download link displays on a folder and will specifically zip it.

Downloading single files would also take a lot of time because I need to right-click on "Raw" - button of every file. What about a new entry in download combo box: Download repository zip Download repository tar. Is it really so difficult to implement? I think audience would be given by "bigger" repositories.

Hey guys, any news about my proposal? I would be happy if someone could implement this. In my opinion it would be a very useful feature. We need to agree on a solution and then write a good description so our community contributors know exactly what they have to do to get the MR accepted.

I'd also be interested in this. My use case would be to get zips for each of the demo projects hosted in this repository to be able to distribute them individually. Hosting each demo project in their own git git download only one directory just for this purpose would be overkill. Mentioned in issue closed. Yes it would be great to download single files or folders. In my case i have my project and release builds in the same repository.

From documentation of git-archive https: I'm thinking we can use the same approach to archive a specific folder, though one minor difference is that the archive would have the subdirectory path in it.
