@GregSutcliffe has a hypothesis to be tested further that cloning the entire repository might not be necessary with the potential of saving a lot of storage space

> `git clone --bare` may be a path forward on disk space, and may perhaps protect you against history rewrites as well

More investigation is necessary to see if this is a viable path

@sgoggins would you be able to assign this issue to @GregSutcliffe ?
