5.1.2

Fix sparse checkout for git 2.25.1, by calling git "config" "extensions.partialClone" "origin" "--local".

5.1.1

Introduced --jobs flag on submodule update and fetch commands

5.1.0

Introducing sparse_directories input to limit which directories should be cloned by the Step.

Input can be used either of the following way:

 - sparse_directories: client/android
OR
- sparse_directories: |-
               client/android
               client/common

5.0.1

Update fetch_tags input description.

5.0.0

This version Introduces a new input (fetch_tags), which can be used to control whether git fetch calls should fetch all tags or no tags at all.
Set fetch_tags to "yes" if you plan to generate a changelog or want to use the repository's tags in further Steps.
If you want to speed up the step run set fetch_tags to "no", this is the default value.

Tag checkout strategy's fetch changed from git "fetch" "--tags" to git "fetch" "origin" "refs/tags/<TAG>:refs/tags/<TAG>"so that in case of tag checkout the step only fetches the desired tag.

Migration guide

If your workflow relied on git tags, set fetch_tags to "yes".
