When you are on your "xyz" branch that was forked off of
"refs/remote/origin/xyz/xyz", $__git_ps1_upstream_name would be
"origin/xyz/xyz" and $__head is "xyz" at this point. The latter
matches the former after stripping */ maximally from its front
(i.e. "xyz"). It is unclear if you really want to make these two
match, but as long as you correctly abbreviate you would not lose
information, I would imagine. I am guessing that you would want to
see "origin/xyz/=" in such a case, and if you started your "xyz" off
of "origin/abc/xyz", you would want "origin/abc/=".

Now, what does ${__git_ps1_upstream_name/$__head/=} give us?
This should not do regexp substitution in the first place, I would
think. You made sure $__head is the tail-matching substring of the
longer variable, so you chop that many bytes off of the latter.
Is this new feature something everybody should want unconditionally,
or are there valid reasons why some people may not want to see this
abbreviation happen (even if the implementation were not buggy)?

Unlike __git_ps1_upstream_name, this __head does not have to be
visible outside this function. Wouldn't it be better to declare it
as local (this is bash prompt and we can afford to step outside
POSIX) and there is no need to "unset" after use if you did so, no?
