Check out what do you have in .git/config file, in the [remote "origin"]
section. Most probably (if you cloned this repository using new enough git)
you have wildcard refspec there, which means that git would pick all new
branches when fetching / pulling from given repository. The wildcard
refspec is not documented adequately, so I'm not sure if adding
fetch = !refs/heads/pu
would help, or do you have to replace wildcard refspec by explicit list of
branches you want to fetch.
