That is the name your local branch. It does not tell us what upstream
branch it corresponds to, or even which remote repository it
corresponds to.

To see for sure, look at the output of 'git remote -v', and then
compare your local branch with the remote branches, for example with
'gitk --all'.

Or just wipe that whole checkout, and use the command soreau gave.
