Currently request-pull identifies the branch to pull from by finding the commit using rev-parse and then identifying the branch from the commit using ls-remote. If more branches are pointing to the same commit the first will be chosen even if the one we entered in the command-line exist. This change returns the same branch as entered at the commandline if it exists in refs/heads.
