It seems you are trying to set the upstream branch to the branch 'android' of
the Github repository https://github.com/noloader/openssl. ; Option
--set-upstream-to expects a remote branch, not a URL.  You could try:

    $ git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/android android

In the hint printed by git pull, <remote> referes to the name of the remote, not
its URL.  You can check configuration of remote names and URLs in a repository
using command "git remote -v".
