[PATCH] git clone depth of 0 not possible.

Currently it is not possible to have a shallow depth of just 0, i.e. only one commit in that repository after cloning. The minimum number of commits is 2, caused by depth=1.

I had no good idea how to add this behavior to git clone as the depth variable in git_transport_options struct (file transport.h) uses value 0 for another meaning, so it would have need changes at all places, where the transport options depth is being used (e.g. fetch)

So I documented the current behavior, see attached patch.
