Description Mark Macdonald CLA 2011-06-21 16:13:45 EDT 
Using 0.2 RC2

1. Clone a Git repo. (I used my Github repo)
2. Go to Repositories page.
3. Expand [repo name] > Remote > origin, and click the "Checkout" button beside refs/remotes/origin/master
3. Nothing happens in the UI, but an error appears in the console:

> arguments: undefined
> message: "Unable to load /gitapi/branch/file/s/ status:500"
> responseText: "{"HttpCode":500,"DetailedMessage":"Ref master already exists","Message":"Failed to handle /git/branch request for file/s/","Severity":"Error","Code":0}"
> stack: "—"
> status: 500
