[PATCH] Fix branches file configuration

From: Daniel Barkalow <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:44:25

It turns out that .git/branches/foo should fetch into refs/heads/foo.

We still don't have a test for that bit of the behavior, so I could have 
it still doing the wrong thing. But it at least should do what I think 
people want.

Andrew, could you give this a try, on top of current master (or, for that 
matter, any released version that doesn't work), and let me know if it 
does the wrong thing?

I tried it on 1.5.5-rc1.  It seems to dtrt from a quick test.
