You are likely to get better overall results (better git fetch compression and pack files and such) in the future if you make the depth enough to get all the commit subgraph pieces to join up.
You will need to run git fetch after you add the additional branch(es) you'd like tracked, and you probably want to do this with a small -depth value (perhaps just 1 again).
GIT SET UPSTREAM LOCAL BRANCH UPDATE
These lines direct your Git to create or update the corresponding remote-tracking name, so that you can now pass that name to git branch -set-upstream-to. Each branch you add, adds one more fetch = +refs/heads/ name:refs/remotes/ remote/ name line. This doesn't affect any depth settings (which have to be repeated on later git fetch operations since they are not stored anywhere) but does alter the fetch setting you quoted in your MORE INFO section. More precisely, add another tracking name using git remote set-branches -add. You need to make your shallow, single-branch clone become a shallow, two-branch clone. If so, it's unfortunate, as I really don't want the entire history occupying space on my computer. and I have a feeling that that changes the whole game in some way. I think there are special rules about fetching and remote-tracking branches when you do that.git/config contains this line: fetch = +refs/heads/release/19.3.0-cv011:refs/remotes/origin/release/19.3.0-cv011
MORE INFO I suspect the issue has something to do with this being a shallow depth-1 one-branch clone ( release/19.3.0-cv011). Am I not "spelling" the branch name correctly? Inserting the = doesn't seem to make any difference. How do I make feature/crvc11-93-add-pec track origin/feature/crvc11-93-add-pec? They are the same commit, this should just work. Warning: Not setting branch feature/crvc11-93-add-pec as its own upstream. If I remove the origin prefix then we get $ git branch -set-upstream-to feature/crvc11-93-add-pec What does Git mean here? Yes, it is a branch, it's the remote-tracking branch. I don't know why feature/crvc11-93-add-pec did not track the remote-tracking branch origin/feature/crvc11-93-add-pec when I checked it out, but now I want to add it as the upstream manually: $ git branch -set-upstream-to origin/feature/crvc11-93-add-pecįatal: Cannot setup tracking information starting point 'origin/feature/crvc11-93-add-pec' is not a branch.
Remotes/origin/feature/crvc11-93-add-pec 93fe8bc. Here's the situation: $ git branch -all -vv
