Vm Runner Size - Windows (drone-git)

Ripe Scallop

We would like Harness to seek out methods to reduce the Windows Drone-git image size. Currently, it exceed 2Gb, leading to long initialization processes. This may be the nature of a windows image, but anything Harness can do to reduce the size would be helpful

Hey, 
We've added option to run Clone Codebase in a containerless step for VM and Cloud infra, available through the CI_GIT_CLONE_CONTAINERLESS feature flag. This is particularly useful for Windows builds due to the large image size required for pull.
Changes required for optimizing git clone when running on K8S build infra are still pending. 
Regards,
