git-gui: Allow users to match remote branch names locally
Some workflows have users create a local branch that matches a remote branch they have fetched from another repository. If the user wants to push their changes back to that remote repository then they probably want to use the same branch name locally so that git-gui's push dialog can setup the push refspec automatically. To prevent typos with the local branch name we now offer an option to use the remote tracking branch name as the new local branch name. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
