This is nice, thanks. What would be nice as well is to be able to provide only the _name_ of the tracking branch without the refs/remotes/$origin/ prefix. Since there is already a 'branch."blah".remote = $origin' entry, then having 'branch."blah".merge = $foo' could mean "refs/remotes/$origin/$foo" when $foo contains no slash.
