Subdirectory Checkouts with git sparse-checkoutIf there is one thing I miss about SVN having switched to git (and trust me, it’s the only thing), it is the ability to checkout only a sub-tree of a repository. As of version 1.7, you can check out just a sub-tree in git as well! Now not only does git support checking out sub-directories, it does it better than subversion!
