pull: allow "git pull origin $something:$current_branch" into an unborn branch
Some misguided documents floating on the Net suggest this sequence: mkdir newdir && cd newdir git init git remote add origin $url git pull origin master:master "git pull" has known about misguided "pull" that lets the underlying fetch update the current branch for a long time. It also has known about "git pull origin master" into a branch yet to be born. These two workarounds however were not aware of the existence of each other and did not work well together. This fixes it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
