Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Cloning the current repository takes a lot of time as it contains all font files.

Describe the solution you'd like
Provide a zip/archive in releases that only includes the patcher, additional scripts and glyphs required to patch a font manually

Describe alternatives you've considered
Tried to checkout only some folders, used apps like downgit

Is something wrong with https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases/download/v2.2.2/FontPatcher.zip ?

Or if you would like to have 'one executable' is this not enough: https://hub.docker.com/r/nerdfonts/patcher

The readme file is not very good, indeed :-(

The ZIP is not mentioned at all, therefor a link to the AppImage of fontforge 🤔
But the docker container is there.

On the other hand, after

• font-patcher: Check if glyph source is available (--glyphdownload) #741

you could just download the one file and it will fetch what is needed itself. Would that be better?

I didn't spot it, thanks!

If you are bored you are welcome to submit a PR that fixes the docu :-D
Just in case you like to. 👍
For me it is hard to understand where people look if they search for something in the docs. I myself never use the docu, because it is so bad callenging. ;)
