Any shortcut to clone or set up a repo using "alternatives" so that we
don't have this issue at all?

"clone -l -s" has been there for quote a long time (since mid Aug
2005).  Because -s implies -l since end of November 2005, you
should be able to say

	git clone --bare -s ..../torvalds/linux-2.6.git stable-queue.git

Yes but what about existing trees?

Can you add an alternatives file, then prune, and get the same result as 
if you had done a clone -s ?
