You might want to learn about shallow clones, but unless you really have
a slow or metered internet connection it's usually not worth the
trouble.  By the time you found the culprit of your current issues you
are asking yourself "how did it get there?" and at that point you'll
want the history anyway.

I don't think you can comment on things you don't seem to have tried in
earnest.  Yes, Git doesn't come with a canned workflow in the same way
that SVN does.  That's a good thing in my book, but there's no shortage
of writeups on how to mimic different workflows in Git if you want to do
that.


Regards,
Achim.
