post-checkout hook not run on clone

I realize this might be a feature, but when I switch to the master
branch with "git checkout master" it is, and I would think that a
clone that gets the master branch would also does a sort of "checkout
master" and would run the hook.

In any case, I'd be happy of there was a post-clone hook, instead, but
there isn't.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
