Something that was only added to git after that discussion was already running for a while is git-clone's -b. Sadly Vcs-Git: git://git.eyrie.org/kerberos/webauth.git -b squeeze does not work as debcheckout is not word splitting the argument, but the error message at least cites a command one can just copy to the shell and it will work. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-policy-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
