Why hg clone on every build

Hi,
I'm using Mercurial with bitbucket.org , I noticed that on every push the AppVeyor CI clones the repository , why it doesn't update (hg update) ?
I think this might save some time !

    Hi Mohamed,

    It's cloned every time because AppVeyor provisions a new build worker (VM) for every build. Other words, build machine state is not preserved between builds.

    Are you experiencing problems with cloning large repo?

    Got it. No right now I don't have large repos but I was wondering if it might get larger.
    Thanks for your support.
