If the revision requested with -u is not in the cache the initial clone fails with an error: abort: unknown revision.

Fix is to remove the -u from the initial clone, and replay it after the clone has been refreshed from remote.

A better fix: update the cache (before the clone), then we can reply the clone command as-is and we don't have to update the new clone at all.
