Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'.
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
bar
baz
foo
nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add"
to track)
Have you considered using an alias?
git config --global alias.irfc \
'!sh -c '\''git init && git remote add origin "$1" && git fetch &&
git checkout "${2:-master}"'\'' sh'
(You'll likely have to carefully unwrap that line above.)
Then you get
git irfc <URL> [<branch>]
where <branch> defaults to master.
So your scenario would become just:
$ mkdir non-empty-dir
$ cd non-empty-dir
$ touch foo bar baz
$ git irfc url:user/dotfiles.git
$ git status
On branch master
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'.
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
bar
baz
foo
nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to
track)

P.S. irfc = init, remote, fetch, checkout. But do make up a better
name. :)
