Hm, but why do you need this at all ? ^^^^ I'm not sure what 'this' refers to, did you mean this line:

Isn't
git checkout -r $BRANCH
working for you ?
? Did I miss a git syntax trick? the git-checkout manpage doesn't mention an -r option.
My intention is to have a source service that can tar up an arbitrary branch, and afaics there isn't a way to do that with git in tar_scm at present. If I understand correctly, tar_scm may be called where an existing clone exists, so I used checkout -B to cover the case that the user changes the branch in an existing source service so the existing clone is checked out to the requested branch.
Errm, just use git archive <tag or branchname> e.g. I use for Wine: git archive origin --prefix=wine-$winever.$xdate/ | bzip2 >$bsdir/wine-$winever.$xdate.tar.bz2 Of your you can replace "origin" by whatever branch or tag or other GIT thingie you want.
