I am working with a git repository that is over a 100GB when it is checked out. I don't have enough space on disk to keep the whole repo around, and I only need read access to it, I will never submit. How can I get git to just checkout the current state of the files, and not the entire history?
Try a shallow clone:
git clone --depth 1 <repository>
That will clone with a history depth of 1 revision, not the full history of the repository.
