creating tracking branches with git gui

["Sitaram Chamarty" <sitaramc@gmail.com>]

Hello,

Using git gui to create tracking branches only creates the local
branch, but does not establish tracking.  Using the command "git
branch newbr origin/newbr" works as expected of course.

I clicked on "Branch", then "Create", chose the "Match Tracking Branch
Name" radio button, chose the appropriate branch (origin/newbr) in the
list below, then finally hit Create at the bottom right.

I can write up a more detailed note if required but I thought I'd ask
if this was a bug in my understanding first :-)

Thanks,

Sitaram
