Were you around on this list, around the beginning of this
month?  The thread that starts here may be of interest:

	http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git&m=113089701819420

I think (although I do not exactly know how the "lite"
repository was constructed) what you are doing is similar to
what I called "shallow clone" there in that thread.  At the end
of the thread I think I listed what you can and cannot do in
such an incomplete repository.
