Agreed - although to some extent it depends how far you want to go 
back.  The files that make up the source of the "standard" style changed 
when project.yaml was introduced in September 2014.  If you want to go 
back to a version on a certain date, have a look at 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6990484/git-checkout-by-date ; I've 
done "git checkout `git rev-list -n 1 --before="2014-04-12 00:00" 
master`" in the past to get an old standard style version.

However, if you're starting from scratch with that be aware that some of 
the external files that that will use may not be where the user to be 
when that version of the style was new.  For example, when I last used 
an old "standard" style the build failed at "sh get-shapefiles.sh" 
because some things had moved - I had to manually find what I was 
looking for and put them in the correct place.
