Install from git should not clone all commit history. Can we just make a shallow clone instead?
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.

Research direction
The issue names no file, test, or entry point. Start by locating Poetry’s git-install and clone path, then determine how clone options are currently selected; done means git installs avoid fetching full commit history and relevant tests cover the behavior.
