degit-rs

degit-rs is a rust rewrite of degit. It downloads copies of git repositories from the internet, without the need for git clone. This is faster, since it does not download the .git folder (which contains all the git history) and allows you to initialize a new repository afterwards. It is useful for downloading project boilerplate templates.
