This code does not exist in git.git. Somehow, the code you are consulting has incorrectly substituted 'remote' for 'local' in the strings of the (!remote_is_branch && !origin) case. Whether this is due to a local modification you made or some some other reason, it is leading you astray in your proposed changes and breaking your patches so that they cannot be applied to git.git.

Probably easiest at this point would be for you to start from scratch by making a new clone of git.git and examining branch.c as it actually exists in the 'master' branch.
