I just had another idea (although I haven't had a chance to code up
anything yet).  Perhaps instead of, or in addition to, a global
setting (i.e., guilt.reusebranch), perhaps we should have a per-branch
setting, such as branch.<branch>.guiltReuseBranch?

I was actually thinking that it might be interesting to have a
branch.<branch>.rewindable, which would change the guilt defaults, and
could also key changes in key git behavior which makes it less likely
that a user shoots him or herself in the foot --- i.e., give warnings
if he or she has modified the branch in such a way that
remotes.origin.<branch> is no longer contained within the branch head.

Interesting!  I wonder what git people have to say about this.
