As food for thought:
Maybe broaden this further up to the git-ish way of describing refs, so

    git clone --since 2.weeks.ago <url>
    git clone --since v2.10 <url>
    git clone --since c0ffee^^ <url>

would all equally work?

I am not sure if that is feasible though, but it would come in handy. (E.g.
you are an end user and want to bisect down a bug which you notice in the
new version X but not in old version Y, so you start on getting the sources,
compiling, bisecting)
