Subject: Set up remotes/origin to track all remote branches.
X-Git-Tag: v0.99.9e^2~3
X-Git-Url: https://git.verplant.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=95d117b6051c01726b67d3151f83e47dd41c0743;p=git.git

Set up remotes/origin to track all remote branches.

This implements the idea Daniel Barkalow came up with, to match
the remotes/origin created by clone by default to the workflow I
use myself in my guinea pig repository, to have me eat my own
dog food.

We probably would want to use either .git/refs/local/heads/*
(idea by Linus) or .git/refs/heads/origin/* instead to reduce
the local ref namespace pollution.
