workunit: git checkout sha1/branch/tag

git clone --branch refspec only accepts branches and tags but not a sha1
git reset --hard refspec only accepts tags and sha1 but not branches

Use git checkout because it interprets branches, tags and sha1 as
expected.

$ git checkout jewel
Branch jewel set up to track remote branch jewel from origin.
Switched to a new branch 'jewel'
$ git checkout v0.94.6
HEAD is now at e832001... 0.94.6
$ git checkout b2503b0e15c0b13f480f0835060479717b9cf935
HEAD is now at 95cefea... 0.94.3
