Git Shallow Clone Fixes
Two patterns encountered during Forgejo migration when local clones were shallow and source remote was unreachable.
Pattern 1: Unshallow via HTTPS
When git fetch --unshallow over SSH hangs/times out (large repos, slow remote), switch to HTTPS temporarily:
git remote set-url origin https://codeberg.org/Owner/Repo.git
git fetch --unshallow origin
git remote set-url origin git@codeberg.org:Owner/Repo.git # restore SSH
Pattern 2: Make first commit rootless (missing parent)
When .git/shallow lists a boundary commit whose parent doesn't exist locally, and the source remote is unreachable:
# Check what's shallow — if only ONE line, this works
cat .git/shallow
# Create graft making the shallow boundary a root commit
echo "<shallow-hash> " > .git/info/grafts
# Rewrite history to make it permanent
FILTER_BRANCH_SQUELCH_WARNING=1 git filter-branch -f --msg-filter "cat" -- --all
# Clean up
rm .git/info/grafts .git/shallow
Warning: This rewrites all commit hashes. Only use when pushing to a fresh empty repo and no one depends on the old hashes. The repo should be small enough that filter-branch completes fast.
