.git removed when building image when is a repo that contains several modules inside

[ssaid]

Describe the bug

It seems that is not a possibility to have .git stored in an image for multi-addons repositories, there is a script 400-clean that i want to clarify whether it has a bug or not.

To Reproduce

1. Build a image
2. Exec to that image
3. Check if you have .git in a repo like OCA (they contains several addons per repo)

I was hoping to have the .git inside the image, but it do not. Is this a bug? Or is this on purpose?

Please clarify this and i can send appropiate patch if needed.

Thanks!

It's on purpose to reduce the image size, as it doesn't add value to have it there.
