I don't think consistency with other porcelain is a sufficient argument.
Many commands purposely don't use the pager by default because they will
normally have a short output.

Users can already set "pager.show-branch" to get the behavior you
introduce in the patch. The question is more: will users prefer having
the pager by default for this particular command? I don't use
show-branch enough to answer by myself, but probably the answer is yes.

(This is not an objection, just to make sure you have all the elements)
