Description
With:
```
source-repository-package
type: git
location: git://github.com/georgefst/pretty-simple.git
branch: experimental
```
at the top of my `cabal.project`, I get the failure `fatal: '--detach' cannot be used with '-b/-B/--orphan'`. Unclear what's causing this. It works fine with `master`.
`git` version is `2.7.4`, which is pretty old (can't upgrade right now on my work machine), so if that's the issue, I'll just work around it.
