 ## `skip_clone`
 
-:::warning
-The default clone step is executed as `root` to ensure that the workspace directory can be accessed by any user (`0777`). This is necessary to allow rootless step containers to write to the workspace directory. If a rootless step container is used with `skip_clone`, the user must ensure a suitable workspace directory that can be accessed by the unprivileged container use, e.g. `/tmp`.

 By default Woodpecker is automatically adding a clone step. This clone step can be configured by the [clone](#clone) property. If you do not need a `clone` step at all you can skip it using:

-### User-facing migrations

-#### Clone plugin working directory
-
-- Clone plugins now use `/woodpecker` as working directory instead of `/woodpecker/<workspacePath>/<directory>`. If you use the default clone plugin, you do not need to make any changes. If you use a custom clone plugin, please ensure the plugin uses absolute paths and don't rely on the working directory.

-#### Miscellaneous

 - (Kubernetes) Deprecated `step` label on pod in favor of new namespaced label `woodpecker-ci.org/step`. The `step` label will be removed in a future update.
