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.
