 hello,

 just created a child-theme with the name "sigma" (child theme created
 through wp cli saffold). WordPress update tool marks it as needed update
 which is strange for a child theme in general, let alone a brand new one.

 as it turns out, the update tool looks for name and version, comparing
 them to already published themes on wordpress.org:
 https://wordpress.org/themes/sigma/

 but it doesnt validate if these actually exist on my wordpress
 installation, neither sees the diference between a theme and a child-
 theme.
