Starting from a tagged version:

julia> Pkg.checkout("TaylorSeries", "warningsv05")
INFO: Checking out TaylorSeries warningsv05...
ERROR: GitError(Code:ERROR, Class:Merge, There is no tracking information for the current branch.)

but this works if master is checkouted first.

should we try a fetch if this tracking-info failure occurs?

Note that if the supplied branch name doesn't exist Pkg.checkout will create a branch with that name at the current HEAD.

Should no longer be a problem with new Pkg. Please open further issues at https://github.com/JuliaLang/Pkg.jl
