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.
