Comment (by eric9):

 Actually I'm going to change my suggestion a bit. There's really no
 overhead to setting up all branches for remote-tracking as far as I can
 tell. It seems that all the necessary data is cloned even if a shallow
 clone is performed, at least that is the case with the CRL repo. In that
 case, why not just setup all branches? That would be significantly easier
 than my previous suggestion since it wouldn't interfere with the logic I
 already have to determine if !REPO_BRANCH is actually a tag.
