I'm very excited to see the shallow clone stuff coming online. Thanks
to everybody that is working on that!

Has though been given to make the depth selection consistent with
other limiting options for rev-parse and rev-list? For example, I'd
like to be able to use --since to get a shallow clone, (so should
--depth instead be --max-count?, and can we re-use some existing
machinery here?).

Also very exciting. Please do keep up the user-interface improvements,
everybody.
