1 I am trying to emerge a package from a git repository but the amount being
2 downloaded strikes as unreasonable, because if not anything else I don't have
3 this amount of space available on the current partition:
4
5 >>> Emerging (1 of 2) dev-libs/efl-9999::bar
6 >>> Unpacking source...
7 Cloning into bare repository '/usr/portage/distfiles/egit-src/efl.git'...
8 remote: Counting objects: 515506, done.
9 remote: Compressing objects: 100% (82268/82268), done.
10 Receiving objects: 39% (201698/515506), 99.29 MiB | 199.00 KiB/s

12 I can recall such a problem with CVS. Is there a way I could restrict this
13 huge download of stuff I do not need or want on my PC down to a single
14 package?
