+ a branch name is expected and acts as if you typed the branch name.
+ E.g. "git branch --track mybranch @{-1}", "git merge @{-1}", and
+ "git rev-parse --symbolic-full-name @{-1}" would work as expected.
+
+* When refs/remotes/origin/HEAD points at a remote tracking branch that
+ has been pruned away, many git operations issued warning when they
+ internally enumerated the refs. We now warn only when you say "origin"
+ to refer to that pruned branch.

+ enhanced to allow mapping an incorrect e-mail field as well.
