+ If a branch is missing in the local repository try to
+ fetch it from the remote side and (if it exists) fetch it and set up
+ branch tracking for it. This ensures that branches that are added at a
+ later point to the remote side (e.g.
+ <replaceable>pristine-tar</replaceable>) are picked up automatically.
+ Note that it's not an error for the branch to not exist on the remote
+ side.
