Bug 43436: Fetch only target or current branch in CI jobs

brizental requested to merge brizental/tor-browser:43436-fetch-right-branch into tor-browser-128.6.0esr-14.5-1

Merge Info

Merging

Target Branches

  • tor-browser - !fixups to tor-browser-specific commits, new features, security backports
  • base-browser and mullvad-browser - !fixups to base-browser-specific commits, new features to be shared with mullvad-browser, and security backports
    • Note: this will conflict with base browser until #43437 (closed) is addressed -- will work on it this afternoon.

Backporting

Timeline

  • No Backport (preferred): patchset for the next major stable
  • Immediate: patchset needed as soon as possible (fixes CVEs, 0-days, etc)
  • Next Minor Stable Release: patchset that needs to be verified in nightly before backport
  • Eventually: patchset that needs to be verified in alpha before backport

Review

Change Description

To avoid large fetches from CI jobs, let's pre-populate each jobs repo with the history of either the target branch, when running in an MR, or the current branch, when running on merges.

This MR is companion to tpo/tpa/ci-templates!45 (merged).

How Tested

Just check if CI passes.
