    Description

      When selecting a remote branch to checkout in the Git branches list, it asks if we want to create a local branch, but the name field is empty, while it should be the name of the remote branch by default, and it should have an option to set remote branch as upstream.
      It would ease up the workflows like in Gitlab where the remote branch is created when opening a merge-request from a issue BEFORE doing any commit, thus we need to checkout the branch locally to work on it...
