You code faster that I write e-mails :-)
I like your approach, even though it breaks compatibility. I understand
we are going to more .git/remotes to the config, so compatibility will
be broken anyways.
I'm only concerned that we would be hardcoding the word "branch". We
could need fancy section names for other things in the future.
