Very long filenames make this challenging to clone on Windows

[bridgewaterrobbie]

While trying to clone this for one sample, I got many errors similar to "error: unable to create file Official Windows Platform Sample/Application resources and localization sample/[JavaScript]-Application resources and localization sample/JavaScript/images/ja/projector.scale-180_contrast-standard.png: Filename too long" on a Windows 10 computer that is (I think) under a standard configuration. I had to figure out how to do a partial clone to get the bit I wanted.

I'm facing same issue, is there any workaround for this

@jeganrajm google how to do a partial git clone, and clone just the sample's path you want.
