well, first I was also using cg clone... but i also realized, that there
is only one branch being pulled from the repository.

If you use git clone, then all tags and branches will be pulled... so
everytime i start using a fresh repository and start pulling origin of
it, i use git clone instead of cg-clone.

i also use git checkout instead of cg-switch... well, i think i haven't
had a use for the effekts, cg-switch does, and always wanted git
checkout... and wondered about the files, which were missing in the
index of the new branch..

i think thats the difference between porcelain and plumbing...

Sincerly
