Description

The following happen trying to perform a clean checkout:

git clone http://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-s4.git
Cloning into 'incubator-s4'...

Resolving deltas: 100% (4696/4696), done.
warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout.

Following the suggestion of Harsh J, i tried to go into the created incubator-s4 directory (empty) doing:

git checkout trunk
error: pathspec 'trunk' did not match any file(s) known to git.
