In PyPi it's called wr-cloner, cloner was already taken :sad:

Note: If using cloner after cloning the project and not a PyPi package, add "python" at the start. There's an example of that in the examples section.

                                  use '--max-threads'  [default: 4]
  --max-threads                   If declared, uses the maximum available
                                  threads and processes in the system. As per

  --ignore-fork                   If declared, will ignore fork repos when
                                  cloning.
  --exclude-repos TEXT            Comma separated list of repository names to
                                  exclude from cloning. Example:

Known Issues

• Multithreading doesn't work to clone repos, since the os.system call is 1 for each PID. The splitting is done with multithreading, the cloning with multiprocessing. Same amount of threads and processes.
• Windows usage and support
• If seeing RPC failed; curl 92 HTTP/2 stream 5 was not closed cleanly: CANCEL (err 8) either adjust your git config, as per this StackOverflow issue. If still persists, either decrease the number of threads using the --threads option or adjust the depth of cloning with --git-options "--depth 10" (10 or any other small number).
