fix cloning of tagged versions

the .gitmodules of tagged commits typically refers to a release branch
which was deleted shortly after the release. consequently, git clone
--branch is bound to fail.

of course, cloning a fixed sha1/tag requires no branch in the first
place, so revert back to using git clone --no-checkout in that case.

amends ac6168c0c.
