Any failure between `__branch_create` and `__branch_delete` can leave behind a stale temp branch, which can cause failures when we try to create a branch with the same name in subsequent builds. Since `shallow_clone_at_commit_from_local` is the only function that creates these temp branches and expects the temp branch to always track the required commit, we can force-create it to handle cases where a stale branch is left behind from a previous failure.
