The git plugin includes support for multiple remotes (origin, upstream, downstream, etc.) and for multiple branches. It includes guessing code for those cases where a branch name is ambiguous (like 'develop' in a repository which includes branches named 'develop', 'kassandra/develop', and 'mwaite/develop'). in the context of multiple remotes or multiple branch names.
You can often avoid the guessing by naming the branch precisely, as in 'origin/develop'.
