Slooow internet? Try this!

Code: Select all

git clone -b Terrain --single-branch --depth=1 https://github.com/FGMEMBERS-TERRAGIT/w010n40.git

This will download only the last commit and only the terrain branch of a tile; adjust as necessary.
This forfeits install script privileges / one step updating, and you have to manually update via git pull.
However, it does save time remarkably, since you do not have to download git history and the objects as well as terrain or vice versa...
Only recommended when your internet is abominable; submodule updating recommended at all other times.

Apply this trick on an Objects branch and pick your jaw from the floor!

The branch indeed does not exist;
maybe?

Code: Select all

git clone -b Terrain --single-branch --depth=1 https://github.com/FGMEMBERS-TERRAGIT/w010n40-terrain.git
