Hello, I tried to use git gui in an empty dir (via Git Cheetah).

I selected to clone from a file:///Y:/subdir/foo.git

The result differed from the usual "git clone URL", as the newly created "master" branch was not set to track origin/master. "git pull" failed.

When I start by "git clone", I can immediately proceed with "git pull"

The difference can be checked in .git/config, in section branch.master.

Have a nice day,
	Stepan Kasal
