Subject: [PATCH v2] nmbug-status: Use 'show-ref --heads' for loading configs
Date: Sun, 15 Mar 2015 02:46:57 -0700
Message-Id:
 <5e97afaab6c01e980ca6194a1c04aa0310e28ab8.1426412504.git.wking@tremily.us>
Precedence: list

When loading configs from Git, the bare branch name (without a
refs/heads/ prefix or similar) matches all branches of that name
(including remote-tracking branches):

  .nmbug $ git show-ref config
  48f3bbf1d1492e5f3d2f01de6ea79a30d3840f20 refs/heads/config
  48f3bbf1d1492e5f3d2f01de6ea79a30d3840f20 refs/remotes/origin/config
  4b6dbd9ffd152e7476f5101eff26747f34497cee refs/remotes/wking/config

Instead of relying on the ordering of the matching references, use
--heads to ensure we only match local branches.
---
This is v2 of [1], with the only changes being:

* Relocate the NEWS blurb to fit into the current pending release
  (0.20).
* Translate the 'nmbug' patch from Perl to Python.
