It's just because your local copy doesn't have xen-tested-master -- there is no such local branch. We either put a commit id or tag in Config.mk. If you want to put a branch in Config.mk in your case, use origin/xen-tested-master. I don't think it is a problem in git-checkout.sh because I don't think we should make it "smart" enough to second guess what the user wants.
