clone: use configured default branch name when appropriate
When cloning a repository without any branches, Git chooses a default branch name for the as-yet unborn branch. As part of the implicit initialization of the local repository, Git just learned to respect `init.defaultBranch` to choose a different initial branch name. We now really want that branch name to be used as a fall-back. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
