This part of the code becomes overly deeply indented, and more
importantly, the outer conditional around here has been reworked by
another topic and the code that learns follow_remote_head will have
to be reused elsewhere, which would lead to a nasty merge conflict.

I wonder if it makes sense to incorporate such a new helper function
into the existing 'get_follow_remote_head()', since it would be the only
place using it.
I am not sure what being the only place has to do with avoiding to
split a helper function out to clarify the main logic flow, though.
And simultaneously, another topic wants to have this piece of logic
twice.
