在Visual Studio Online上将GIT存储库导入TFS

Question

I'm trying import a what was a Mercurial Repository that has been imported to a GIT repository. I started this project almost a year ago that prompted the following thread: Importing Mercurial... but it got shelved I'm trying to pick back up and am where I'm trying to Import from Gitblit to TFS.

I've created a folder and cloned the TFS folder using git-tfs and then ran the "git add remote origin http://..." pointing to the local git-blt server.

When I run the "git pull origin master" command I get "fatal: Couldn't find remote ref master" I've tried "master", "default", "head" all with a similar result.

This is a very simple repository that does not have any "branches" in it. It was simply used for version control and historical reference. Is there some step I need to do to "create" a branch or something?
