In fact I'm a little confused too.  The only way I found to expand 
"$Id$" consistently was "rm test.perl; git checkout test.perl", or "rm 
test.perl; git reset --hard HEAD".

I was not so surprised that clone did not expand, though IMHO it is a 
bug -- but I was *very* surprised to see that cloning a bare repository 
did not expand, either.
