We could just solve this via a docs page, explaining how to get a list of files that should be cloned and then do it from Python. E.g. one might be interested only in certain orders or tile formats or regions of the sky. That's already possible but it needs to be explained to users that aren't familiar with the HiPS folders / files. Also, I'm not sure if there are index files about which tiles are available on the server, or if one has to try to fetch all and see if they are there.
We could also add a function or class and / or command line tool that has a few common options what to clone. If we do this, using click is very simple and nice. That's what we use in Gammapy and I documented how it work here: http://docs.gammapy.org/dev/scripts/index.html#implementation
@tboch - Thoughts? Is this a useful addition for this Python package, or does hipsgen cover this well, and all that's needed is to add some docs there? If we add something here: would you suggest to add some code or just docs?

This came up in gammapy/gamma-sky#65 (comment) where @tboch mentioned that
hipsgen
has a-clone
