This is nice to know, because from past history Clovis is strictly a
cash-in-advance professional, and while the Trump / GOP organizations may not have kept the best records I’m sure Sam always got certified receipts to store away.
(Also, back in Texas, Rick Perry is guffawing.)
which means Mueller made sure he had Clovis on record BEFORE letting the world know Clovis's underling was a cooperating witness.
