Idiomatic way of specifying --single-branch argument

Hello, AFAIK, the fastest way to clone just a single branch of a huge repository requires the following arguments:

git clone $REPO_URL   \
  --branch $BRANCH    \
  --depth 1           \
  --single-branch

With with: fetch-depth: 1, we get --depth 1, but I could not find a way to specify the last argument --single-branch, which skips fetching details of all branches except for the one specified by --branch (or default branch, if --branch or -b was skipped). Without --single-branch, it means "get depth 1 of all branches", and in case there are many (100+) branches, it is a sheer waste of time and resource for those who are interested in just one branch during the build (i.e. a common use-case).

Is there an idiomatic way to specify it? If not, please consider it for the future version.

Cheers!

Start by examining the checkout action's available inputs and the git clone or fetch invocation it uses. Confirm whether an input can request single-branch behavior, and consider the work complete when a workflow can select that behavior and the resulting checkout avoids fetching unrelated branches.
