One of the first things git-pull.sh does is setting $curr_branch to the target of HEAD and $curr_branch_short to the same but with the leading "refs/heads/" removed. Simplify the code by using $curr_branch_short instead of setting $curr_branch to the same shortened value. The only other use of $curr_branch in that function doesn't have to be replaced with $curr_branch_short because it just checks if the string is empty. That property is the same with or without the prefix unless HEAD points to "refs/heads/" alone, which is invalid.
