Description

(Would be solved by #131)

Is it possible to link a local branch with a remote branch without performing a push? I'm working on devtools::use_github(), and I'd like to be able to at least set up the repo so that you can push from RStudio. Currently:

git2r::remote_add(r, "origin", create$ssh_url) git2r::branch_set_upstream(head(r), "origin/master")

Error in git2r::branch_set_upstream(head(r), "origin/master") :

Error in 'git2r_branch_set_upstream': Cannot set upstream for branch 'master'

What am I doing wrong?
