body: <p>I tried to clone this repo few times, but get the same error. Is it because , it is huge and my connection is slow? </p>

  <p>(I press ENTER few times, so the message <code>Receiving objects:   x%</code> is preserved).</p>
  
  <p>I tried, </p>
  
  <p>git clone --depth=1 <a href="https://git01.codeplex.com/typescript">https://git01.codeplex.com/typescript</a>
  Cloning into 'typescript'...</p>
  
  <p>it never showed any progress. What other option I have to just get the latest version. (There is a download link on the site, but it is not git repo, so I can't <code>git pull</code> to update)</p>
  
  <p>thanks</p>
