Re: [PATCH] git-branch: show detached HEAD

This makes git-branch show a detached HEAD as '* (no branch)'.

This might be a premature patch. But if/when we allow HEAD to be detached, 
git-branch should tell us that HEAD is the current 'branch'.

I fully agree with the motivation, but 100 lines of change to
adjust only to detached HEAD seems too much.  What else is going
on in this patch, I wonder...

Can we have two patches, one for loop restructuring without
detached HEAD support, and then another to add support for it?

Sure, I'll do it tonight
