Description
Currently the atlas pull supports a --branch argument which accepts only git branches and tags.
atlas pull could be more verstile if it supported a more generic --revision argument which could accept the following revisions:
- Git branch e.g.
git checkout open-release/quince.master - Git tag e.g.
git checkout open-release/quince.1 - Git commit SHA
git checkout f098hab11 - Git branch at a specific date
git checkout 'main@{2020-11-06}'as supported by https://linux.die.net/man/1/git-rev-parse

Research direction
Start with the implementation of the atlas pull command and its existing --branch argument. Review how Git revisions are passed to the checkout operation, then support the requested branch, tag, commit SHA, and date-based revision forms; verify the behavior with the project's available CLI tests or manual Git cases.
