1) Commit a change using the default branch (master)
2) Press push all on repository page
3) Press the more button
Result:
Choose Branch dialog allows you to choose an existing branch. There is a text box at the bottom to enter a new branch name.  I cannot type in that box.

I tried different selections, but nothing enables the box. If this isn't a valid operation we need a way to indicate that to the user (preferably by removing the text box entirely).

To clarify, the problem is the current selection and the required selection are unclear.  When you open the dialog, origin is blue, textbox disabled.  Selecting origin makes it orange and the textbox is enabled, ctrl-clicking origin removes the selection entirely and the textbox is disabled.

Having text in the box saying "Select a remote to create a branch" would solve the problem.

Uses the input placeholder to explain to the users why the textbox is disabled
