问题
I have created a new branch on my remote, so I would expect to do this:
$ git fetch && git checkout feature/name
However, I get this error:
error: pathspec 'feature/name' did not match any file(s) known to git.
When I run git fetch on its own, it doesn't return anything, I have also tried git fetch origin which does not work either.
git remote returns just the one remote called origin.
My config looks like this:
[core]
repositoryformatversion = 0
filemode = true
bare = false
logallrefupdates = true
ignorecase = true
precomposeunicode = true
[remote "origin"]
url = removed as it is a private repo
fetch = +refs/heads/staging:refs/remotes/origin/staging
[branch "staging"]
remote = origin
merge = refs/heads/staging

As per Andrew C's comment. I changed the fetch line in my git config to this:
fetch=+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

The fix is to correct your remote.origin.fetch parameter, e.g.
git config remote.origin.fetch '+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*'
so all branches can be fetched. See: How to fetch all remote branches?

If you are on GIt >1.9.X you have a default upstream with the value of simple.
If you want to get all the branches and tags you should use: git fetch --all --prune--all will fetch all the branches and tags--prune will delete all the deleted branches and tags
The flags will apply on your local repository.
