Re: more useful set-upstream

I don't understand why all my branches haven't automatically had the right

If you keep it simple, they should:

* git clone wherever => checks out the default branch, and sets the
  upstream for it.

* git checkout foo => if foo doesn't exist, and <remote>/foo exists,
  foo is created and upstream is set to <remote>/foo (that's rather
  recent)

But we could probably have a better way to set the upstream after the
fact when the initialisation magic didn't do its job.
