git pull
produces the "you haven't asked me which branch to merge" message.
Which does make some sense, given how tracking configuration is set
up.
It's just that it's a little sad that cloning an empty repository and
then later getting commits out of it (whether commits you put in or
somebody else) does not behave the same as cloning a repository with
commits.
This is true in all cases. If you create a new branch in any repository,
push that, and later do a 'git pull', you get that message. I agree it's
not the nicest way to handle things, but this is not an issue with the
clone,
it's an issue of pushing new branches in general.
