The new function clones a git repository with submodules with a blob filter. A blobless clone contains the full git history but no blobs. Blobs are downloaded on demand. Pip's VCS feature uses similar tricks to speed up builds from a VCS URL.
The ref parameter can be any tree-ish reference like a commit, tag, or branch. To force a tag, use
refs/tags/v1.0to fetch thev1.0tag.Like in pip, submodules are automatically cloned recursively.
