I ran this:

    git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/linux-yocto-3.0
    git checkout -t origin/meta -b meta
    vim
    git commit

As you can tell from my clone command above, it is a non-bare clone 
(though I have no idea what that actually means). I have lots of 
branches, but aside from master only my new "meta" branch is local:

-bash-3.2$ git branch -a
   master
* meta
   origin/HEAD
   origin/master
   origin/meta
   origin/yocto/base
   origin/yocto/eg20t
   origin/yocto/emgd
   origin/yocto/emgd-1.10
   origin/yocto/gma500
   origin/yocto/standard/arm-versatile-926ejs
   origin/yocto/standard/base
   origin/yocto/standard/beagleboard
   [...]
