This patch doesn't fix the already created branches. It would be
useful to upgrade the branch structure automatically if the patches
directory is not found.

the reason i didn't do that is because i wanted to allow older versions
of StGIT to continue to work on existing repositories.

You are right.

what if i added a migration tool to allow a user to switch back and forth?

A separate stg command for this would be useful. Anyway since the
repository structure might change again in the future, I think it
would be better to have a version string saved somewhere in
.git/patches/version for reference.
