There is a very large repo I am working with. For better or worse, even using git clone --depth=1 yields a few MB. The whole repo exceeds 1GB, and I do not want that much information.

After cloning a repo with git clone --depth=X how does one add more depth?

In my case, I initially set the depth to 1. Is there a way to get all of the details up to a depth of 20 without deleting and recloning the repo with the new depth value?

Use

git fetch --unshallow

To convert to a full clone, or

git fetch --deepen 20

To increase to a specific number
