How you make: copying "out of source"? Copying the current contents of your
git working tree? Well - then this is exactly what the checkout prepare.
You can checkout your git working tree to state of 2012-04-01, then copy
current contents of your working tree (precisely sources in state of
2012-04-01) "out of source" and build.

If you use in
your scripts working tree contents, scripts
use what you checkout before using scripts. Checkout simply ensures that
the working tree will look like as it was at the required revision.
But if you use in your scripts git calls - for example git
archive, you have to make an adjustment in those scripts.
This sounds like compiling directly in the GIT tree rather than copying
"out of source." I am and have been following the wiki to copy the sources
to a different location to build "out of source."
