Subject: How to not download objects more than needed?

I have a pecuilar, but common use case for git.
I have linux-2.6 repository pulled and I'd like to download some branch
(say, netdev-2.6), which uses many of the same objects,
but not to get all the objects from the git server.
I've already tried certain commands, but still can't do it,
and my bandwidth isn't too happy about it.
It seems to require some kind of HEAD rewinding,
or maybe fetching to another branch, I don't know.
Anyone cares to help?
