Function clone_local

src/git_operations.rs:497–517

Clone a local repository without hardlinks This creates an optimized copy of the source repository at the destination path. The clone operation repacks objects efficiently, typically resulting in 1-2 pack files instead of preserving fragmented pack structure. # Arguments `source_repo_path` - Path to the source repository to clone `destination_path` - Path where the cloned repository will be cre

(source_repo_path: &Path, destination_path: &Path)

/// - The destination path cannot be created
/// - The clone operation fails
