Although both origin and trac are set in .git/config as remotes, and git config -l show both equally set, this behaves dfifferent:
ralf@ark:~/sage> git branch --set-upstream-to remotes/origin/master Branch tmp set up to track remote branch master from origin. ralf@ark:~/sage> git branch --set-upstream-to remotes/trac/master fatal: Not a valid object name: 'remotes/trac/master'.
