GitHub Actions (https://github.com/r-universe/cranhaven/actions/runs/8132443596/job/22222883473) reported:

fatal: cannot create directory at 'packages/elfgen': No space left on device

I suspect this is because each submodule holds a full copy of https://github.com/CRANhaven/cranhaven.r-universe.dev, so this grows exponentially. To avoid this, R-universe would have to filter the submodule to only contain the folder of interest, e.g.

git filter-repo --path <subdir> --invert-paths
git reflog expire --expire=now --all
git gc --prune=now --aggressive

Before anything like that is in place, the workaround is probably to clone each package to its own repository.

Will first attempt using separate branches for each package, e.g. package/<name>.

Moved to the branch approach. Seems to work. Solves also the 'commit' date stamp.
