The message
There is no tracking information for the current branch.
Please specify which branch you want to rebase against.
See git-pull(1) for details.
git pull <remote> <branch>
If you wish to set tracking information for this branch you can do so with:
git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/<branch> master
Indicates you have
/Users/marius/Development/MacPorts/ports
<file:///Users/marius/Development/MacPorts/ports>
switched to a branch that does not have its tracking information set. This
normally happens if you have a feature branch (e.g. for a PR) checked out, but
the above is for master which is a bit weird.
running
git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/master master
might fix this, but again, it is a bit odd you need to do this for your master
checkout, unless you have done something ‘odd’ to it such that it has lost its
tracking info.
