It will make us even more dependent on the 3rd services - just a general thought. Maybe it would be good to investigate that as an alternative. There are few functionalities I believe where we do sth with the file contents (I guess that's for Maven dependencies for example).

I think we should investigate shallow cloning with only one, main branch to start with.
