Please scratch this paragraph; this was a sloppy thinking on my part.
The option, and its cousin --track, do call into setup_tracking() to look
up the mapping.
The --set-upstream option needs to set both which remote's what branch,
and refs/remotes/origin/master is a way to say "origin's master" and it
was inevitable to expose refs/remotes/ to the UI level if you wanted to
implement it as an option with a single argument. So in that sense there
is nothing to fix.
Conceptually, "git branch --set-upstream=master --set-remote=origin" is
what it really wants to say, even though that is probably longer to type.
There still might be a room for UI improvement.
