Fresh installation of text-generation-webui-2.3 missing current branch information for update

[P1LeFR]

Describe the bug

While running the "update_wizard_windows.bat" script, the operation stops with the following message:

There is no tracking information for the current branch.
Please specify which branch you want to merge with.
See git-pull(1) for details.

    git pull <remote> <branch>

If you wish to set tracking information for this branch you can do so with:

    git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/<branch> main

Command '"E:\text-generation-webui-2.3\installer_files\conda\condabin\conda.bat" activate "E:\text-generation-webui-2.3\installer_files\env" >nul && git pull --autostash' failed with exit status code '1'.

Exiting now.
Try running the start/update script `again.

Is there an existing issue for this?

Reproduction

Install portable text-generation-webui-2.3 on Windows 11 from the zip file and run "update_wizard_windows.bat"

Check issues and find = [Bug]: I can't update the webui #3921, but this applies to git clone or git pull, not for installations from the portable text-generation-webui zip file.

This may be related to the portable zip installation method, where the current branch and the branch to merge/update may not be properly defined.
