I'm not sure how you ended up on a branch named emacs-24 given your
config.  Also you seem to use some heavily customized version of git
given that apparently an alias for checkout exists.  That alias may
supply other modifications that you may or may not want.

There is no emacs-24 branch following upstream here.  You'd need

[branch "emacs-24"]
        remote = origin
        merge = refs/heads/emacs-24

in the config, which is usually created when doing

git branch --track emacs-24 origin/emacs-24

> I thought emacs-24 was the branch which track the release but...

You need to learn a little bit of Git.
