Clone with --depth=1 because the repo is huge. #148

Change a few git clone lines in the README to use --depth=1 because the repo is huge. This reduces the clone size to ~200mb for me.

--depth=1 just makes git only get the history for each line one commit deep. I don't think most people cloning the repo need all the history. If they do they probably know how to get it.

Makes sense, thanks!
