Check the slave cylinder. Pull the big rubber boot off entirely then pull the smaller boot up at the cylinder end and see if there is fluid there. There should not be any.

Also... The master cylinder can leak back into the reservoir. Then it never leaks out, & never actuallyloses fluid. In that case the clutch will gradually begin to drag if you hold it in for a little while (like at a stoplight).

Some years have a big rubber boot over the clutch fork & the end of the slave cylinder. Pull that off so you can see the throw-out fork.
Have your helper pump the clutch pedal a couple times. You'll see the slave piston pushing theT-O fork. Then have him hold the pedal down on the floor. The slave cylinder should remain extended. Holdthe pedal down for like 5 minutes or more. TheT-O fork should NOT creep back towards the slave. If it does, it's a bad master cylinder.
