+if it exists on the remote, but not locally, but will not touch an
+already existing local reference. Setting to "warn" will print
+a message if the remote has a different value, than the local one and
+in case there is no local reference, it behaves like "create".
+A variant on "warn" is "warn-if-not-$branch", which behaves like
+"warn", but if <code>HEAD</code> on the remote is <code>$branch</code> it will be silent.
+Setting to "always" will silently update it to the value on the remote.
+Finally, setting it to "never" will never change or create the local
