#2605: Shallow git checkout in GetComponents hide existence of other branches

Reporter: Status: new Milestone: Version: development version Type: bug Priority: major Component:

Using shallow checkouts in GetComponents does not only not download commits other than the most recent one but it also hides the existence of branches other than the current one.

That is even

``` git branch -a ```

only reports `master` and `remotes/origin/master`.
