I don't want to check out the remote branch and go into detached head state.
Basically I want to create a local branch which tracks the remote branch.
When I clone the original repository I then can checkout a branch by just
saying 'git checkout Version-1.3'.
This then creates a local branch
After cloning the bundle I just want to be able to checkout a branch which
is shown in list-heads.
E.g. I see the following line in list-heads:
f63be4c756bf7a6a4cc1db2e08a587a4d3f796c5 refs/remotes/origin/Version-1.3
When I then try to checkout this branch in the clone of the bundle I get:
You're suggestion works perfectly fine. No question.
For my case I now bundle the original repository which works also fine and
solves my problem too.
I just wondered how I could getaccess to these refs which are shown in
list-heads.
Maybe I'm too curious

I just realized that I forgot to mention that I'm talking about remote
branches in the repository from which I create a bundle.
The local branches are perfectly accessible.

Your response was helpful in a sense that I understand what clone does.
But still I can not see how I get all the refs which are in the bundle back
in my repository.
It doesn't help that I can backup all the information, I also have to be
able to restore it.

Actually I planned to use the bundle as a nice way of creating a backup in
a single file.
And since I see the branches in the bundle when I use the 'git bundle
list_heads' command I thought there might be a way to access them.
