Description Tomasz Zarna CLA 2012-02-09 05:54:12 EST 
Sometimes it's very handy to checkout a branch based on a point in time. Especially when dealing with old bugzillas and outdated stack traces.

Currently, I need to switch back to CGit and do: 
git rev-list -n 1 --before="{date}" master
git checkout {result of the above)
