Plan to implement --depth option?

[kyoheiu]

It would be great if this crate implements --depth option in FetchOptions, For example,

  let mut fo = git2::FetchOptions::new();
  fo.depth(1);

  // Prepare builder.
  let mut builder = git2::build::RepoBuilder::new();
  builder.fetch_options(fo);

  // Clone the project.
  builder.clone(
    "git@github.com:rust-lang/git2-rs.git",
    Path::new("/tmp/git2-rs"),
  );

Probably better to add as a request upstream in libgit2

This is a libgit2 limitation. Closing as a duplicate of libgit2/libgit2#3058.

It looks it's not a limitation anymore:
