Setting tracking branch fails with "ref 'refs/remotes/origin/master' doesn't match the destination"

[ermshiperete]

Reproduction steps

• a repo with multiple overlapping fetch specs:

[remote "origin"]
	url = ../multifetchspec_testrepo.git/
	fetch = +refs/pull/28/head:refs/remotes/origin/PR-28
	fetch = +refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

• repo doesn't have local master branch (but remote does)
• call repo.Branches.Update("master", b => b.TrackedBranch = trackedBranch.CanonicalName); (with trackedBranch pointing to refs/remotes/origin/master).

Expected behavior

Tracking branch gets set.

Actual behavior

Exception:

LibGit2Sharp.LibGit2SharpException: ref 'refs/remotes/origin/master' doesn't match the destination

[pniederlag]

for gitversion one can work around this problem by setting the overlapping refspec to "upstream" instead of "origin"

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/merge-requests/48/head:refs/heads/MR-48
	fetch = +refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/upstream/*
