#2154: Master-side git source step breaks revision+shallow

Comment (by dustin):
So, from our IRC conversation, I think the safe (0.8.7) option here is to
disallow shallow for anything but full-clobber builds. The more complex
option (not for 0.8.7) is to detect the problematic cases here (basically,
trying to do an incremental build on a revision that was not part of the
shallow clone) and work around them either with some git sorcery (which
#git indicates is hard/impossilbe) or via a special-cased clobber-and-
clone operation.
I think we only need the safe option at the moment. It brings the master-
side step into line with the slave-side step's behavior.
