This was intended to be a small followup for https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/23712, but...here we are. 1. Our docs currently use `slug` as the entire URL, which makes refactoring tricky (see https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/23712). Instead, this PR attempts to make future refactoring easier by using slugs as an extension of the section. (Hugo terminology) - What the above boils down to is this PR attempts to use directory organization as URL management. e.g. `usage/comparison.en-us.md` -> `en-us/usage/comparison/`, `usage/packages/overview.en-us.md` -> `en-us/usage/packages/overview/` - Technically we could even remove `slug`, as Hugo defaults to using filename, however at least with this PR it means `slug` only needs to be the name for the **current file** rather than an entire URL 2. This PR adds appropriate aliases (redirects) for pages, so anything on the internet that links to our docs should hopefully not break. 3. A minor nit I've had for a while, renaming `seek-help` to `support`. It's a minor thing, but `seek-help` has a strange connotation to it. 4. The commits are split such that you can review the first which is the "actual" change, and the second is added redirects so that the first doesn't break links elsewhere. --------- Signed-off-by: jolheiser <john.olheiser@gmail.com>

# Clone filters (partial clone)
|
|
|
|
Git introduces `--filter` option to `git clone` command, which filters out
|
|
large files and objects (such as blobs) to create partial clone of a repo.
|
|
Clone filters are especially useful for large repo and/or metered connection,
|
|
where full clone (without `--filter`) can be expensive (as all history data
|
|
must be downloaded).
|
|
|
|
This requires Git version 2.22 or later, both on the Gitea server and on the
|
|
client. For clone filters to work properly, make sure that Git version
|
|
on the client is at least the same as on the server (or later). Login to
|
|
Gitea server as admin and head to Site Administration -> Configuration to
|
|
see Git version of the server.
|
|
|
|
By default, clone filters are enabled, unless `DISABLE_PARTIAL_CLONE` under
|
|
`[git]` is set to `true`.

See [GitHub blog post: Get up to speed with partial clone](https://github.blog/2020-12-21-get-up-to-speed-with-partial-clone-and-shallow-clone/)
|
|
for common use cases of clone filters (blobless and treeless clones), and
|
|
[GitLab docs for partial clone](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/topics/git/partial_clone.html)
|
|
for more advanced use cases (such as filter by file size and remove
|
|
filters to turn partial clone into full clone).
