I am waaay to stupid to understand GIT but I am fighting ;)
Newer  versions suport

git clone -b stable-branch git:/...

to clone the branch you want

which might save you some troubles, please note that the stable
branch's name is "stable-branch" and that git checkout <branch> cannot
work if you have not created the branch locally first, but if you do
this

cd blueplane
git branch stable-branch
git checkout stable-branch

but pulling is a bad idea now :(

Hopefully some git guru help us here ;)

git pull origin stable-branch

but this is probably not the right way
