That's the problematic part, not the install procedure.

'git branch' creates a new branch with the given name, so what you did
was you created a local branch DragonFly_RELEASE_3_2 and then switched
to it, while what you intended to do was to switch to a
remote-tracking branch.

To fix it, you must delete the newly created branch and then switch properly:

    git checkout some_other_branch  # you can't delete a branch you're
on, for a list of branches you can switch to use 'git branch -a'
    git branch -d DragonFly_RELEASE_3_2  # delete it
    git fetch  # get whatever branches/tags/commits have appeared in
the remote repo
    git checkout DragonFly_RELEASE_3_2  # should give some message
about tracking a remote branch, namely origin/DragonFly_RELEASE_3_2

I'm writing this from my head without access to a DragonFly system,
but hope I didn't make any mistakes.

Cheers
Radek
