Fix "checkout --track -b newbranch" on detached HEAD
The test to make sure that checkout fails when --track was asked for and we cannot set up tracking information in t7201 was wrong, and it turns out that the implementation for that feature itself was buggy. This fixes it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
