I want the branch name, so this doesn't work. The only way to extract that info
seems to be "git remote show origin":
* remote origin
Fetch URL: git://anonscm.debian.org/openstack/neutron.git
Push URL: git://anonscm.debian.org/openstack/neutron.git
HEAD branch: debian/icehouse
Remote branches:
debian/havana tracked
debian/icehouse tracked
... and then parse that. That's what vcswatch is doing now.
Thanks for spotting this issue.
Why "git clone --mirror" doesn't set up the repo to automatically
track HEAD is beyond my understanding.
