Input Name	Input Code	Required	Description
Instance Code	`FDGIT_INP_INSTANCE_CODE`	Yes	The FlexDeploy instance for Git repository where source code is stored.
Destination Subfolder	`FDGIT_INP_DEST_SUBFOLDER`	Yes	Directory within working folder to clone INTO.
Branch	`FDGIT_INP_BRANCH`	No	Specifies the Git Branch to clone from.
Depth	`FDGIT_INP_DEPTH`	No	Allows a depth to be specified. Set to 1 to only grab the latest commit (to simulate an export in SVN).

Outputs

Artifacts

This operation doesn't consume or produce any artifacts.

Endpoint Selection

This operation will select all available endpoints associated to the environment/instance.

Endpoint Execution

This operation will execute on any one of the selected endpoints and will be random in the determination of which one.

Special Considerations

If the remote repository has a considerable history, this too will be cloned unless the FDGIT_INP_DEPTH is set to 1. This will only grab the latest version of the code, which is useful for building where there will not be a commit back into the remote repository.
