It does make me a little nervous about the "'git branch -v'
automatically means 'git branch --list -v'" patch, though. It closes the
door in the future to us being more or less verbose about branch
creation details (and while helpful, it creates a slight inconsistency
in the interface).

Hasn't 'git branch -v' meant listing in verbose mode for a long enough
time that changing it now would mean a moderately major regression?

At least my copy of v1.7.0 seems to list with "git branch -v".
