To build on Clark's response, THIS is basically why we use tools
like zuul-cloner. In our CI we're attempting to minimize or even
eliminate network use during tests, and so zuul-cloner leverages
local caches and is sufficiently flexible to obtain the repositories
in question from anywhere you want (which could also just be to
always use your locally cached/modified copy and never hit the
network at all). Pass it whatever Git repository URLs you want,
including file:///some/thing.git if that's your preference.
