b4: wrong base-branch in non commit tracking info

b4: wrong base-branch in non commit tracking info

[Fiona Behrens]

Hi,

I'm currently trying a bit with adding a git notes based cover letter
strategy. While working on that I found that if the cover letter
strategy is not commit, and the user preps a new series with a fork
point (-f) the current branch that is checked out is tracked as base-branch,
even if current commits do not appear in the fork point.

Didn't yet understand the prep base code sufficent to directly send a
patch.

I'm not yet sure how well a notes based cover letter stragety will work
and want to test it before sending a patch, but the current WIP branch
is in my git[0]

Thanks,
Fiona
