So I'm trying to set up a bare repository with a branch that tracks a remote ref that isn't the one I'm mirroring. So, I run git clone --mirror <origin> . git remote add -f other <remote> git branch --track other remotes/other/master But I'm getting the error "error: Not tracking: ambiguous information for ref refs/remotes/other/master". Googling this error only gave the place in the git source code where it is returned, which seems to indicate that it happens when there is more than one tracking match (tracking.matches > 1). But I'm not sure exactly what that means. Any advice would be appreciated.
