For default branch, shallow cloning is used:

pod 'YPImagePicker', :git => 'https://github.com/Yummypets/YPImagePicker.git'

% bundle exec pod --verbose install

I've checked cocoapods-downloader, and it seems to handle branch and shallow cloning properly, so I suspect the issue is in how downloader is used.

Yes going to transfer in that repo. Want to try to make a PR for it?
