To Whom It May Concern,
I have a problem and I would like to ask you for help. I need to somehow 
access the git repositry over network and read files from it. In the 
concrete, only thing I need is to read some files from repository, where 
I have files needed for installation of computers. So on  computer where 
installation takes place, I need to read from this repository some files 
needed for installation process. I tried command git clone 
<my_repository> but this command download the whole repository which 
size is now almost 8GB files + 4GB .git folder. This process is very 
slow. So I want to ask you if there is a way how to access my repository 
(read some files from it) but to significantly improve speed. Is there 
for example something what will somehow map the repository to folder and 
then dowload only thouse files which are accessed?

I would appreciate any help.

Thank you for your time,
Yours faithfully,
Martin Precechtel
