Any shortcut to clone or set up a repo using "alternatives" so that we
don't have this issue at all?
"clone -l -s" has been there for quote a long time (since mid Aug
2005). Because -s implies -l since end of November 2005, you
should be able to say
git clone --bare -s ..../torvalds/linux-2.6.git stable-queue.git
Yes but what about existing trees?
Can you add an alternatives file, then prune, and get the same result as
if you had done a clone -s ?
