You just don't have any branches except master on your computer.
Make sure that in .git/config, you have the line
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
(no other fetch lines should be necessary) in the section [remote
"origin"]. Then do
git fetch
After that, your repository should be populated with _every_ remote
branch available.
