I tend to agree with this.

Think of foreign SCM imports, especially the ones that do not
use working tree files, just like tracking foreign branch heads
using "git fetch".  You do not fetch into the current branch,
nor you check out and do your work tracking branch.  You use
them to keep track of other people's work, and if you want to
use it you pull that into your branch, typically but not
necessarily "master".
