The first time I used mtn clone, I found this a little strange too. 
Every command in monotone except the netsync commands uses the -b flag. 
 Perhaps we should slowly transition mtn pull/push/sync to use -b 
instead of a branch pattern.  Although this would also raise the issue 
of passing a branch pattern to -b which is not consistent with how -b 
works in the rest of monotone.

P.S. Dennis, it looks like the proper authorities are ignoring you :).
