"Checkout source branch" button in pull request detail view should fetch source branch if it is not available locally
The “Checkout source branch” button on the Bitbucket pull request detail view only works if the source branch has already been fetched. If the source branch has not been fetched, the extension reports a git error:
Failed to execute git
error: pathspec ‘source-branch-example-name’ did not match any file(s) known to git
The ideal behavior of the extension would be to fetch the branch from the remote repo if it doesn’t exist locally. that way the user does not have to leave the Bitbucket PR detail view to fetch the branch, then come back to checkout the branch.
As a bonus, it would be nice to fetch any changes from the remote repo when “Checkout source branch” is clicked and the branch already exists locally.
