   Hello,   
      
   On the vcswatch page, I found it refused to check on big git repo (> 500 MiB),   
   with error "Error: Repository size 841166848 exceeds 500 MiB, blocking it".   
      
   https://qa.debian.org/cgi-bin/vcswatch?package=fonts-nanum   
      
   But reading debian/changelog does not require the whole repo. How about using   
   partial clone and partial checkout? For example:   
      
     $ git clone --filter=blob:none --no-checkout https://salsa.debian.org/fonts-   
   team/fonts-nanum.git   
     $ cd fonts-nanum   
     $ git checkout master -- debian/changelog   
      
   This used only 280 KB.   
      
      
      
   Regards,
