Git branch -a --format=%(refname:short) returns remote branches as
'origin/branch-name', not 'remotes/origin/branch-name'. The code was
only filtering 'remotes/' prefix, causing clone to fail with branch
names like 'origin/feat/foo'.
Now properly detects remote names using 'git remote' and strips the
remote prefix (e.g., 'origin/') from branch names.
- Create normal working clones for remote repositories
- Initialize blank repositories with a main branch
- Align pull and branch helpers with unborn HEAD handling
- Gate fetch/pull on repositories with a remote
Quality gates: vitest repositories-settings-tab (passed); api pytest blocked by missing fastapi in environment
- Remove useless git diff --numstat call that failed in bare repos
- Use raw bytes instead of text decoding to avoid encoding issues
- Properly check subprocess return codes
Fixes false positive binary detection for text files like .env.sample
