Can we control the cloning depth? (e.g., clone only the homepage)

[AbdallahZerfaoui]

Question:
Hi! I’m exploring GoClone for cloning specific pages (e.g., cloning just the homepage of https://apple.com without recursively downloading the entire site). Does GoClone support limiting the crawling depth?

For example:

• A --depth flag to restrict recursion (e.g., --depth=1 for only the homepage).
• Excluding internal links beyond the root path.

If this isn’t possible today, could you suggest a workaround or confirm if it’s on the roadmap?

Use Case:
I need to clone a website for testing/styling without pulling gigabytes of unrelated content.

Thanks for building this tool!

Do you have an example of logs where the recursion can be seen?

I tested and dont see recursive
