I think it will all boil down to the consistency of all the subcommands.
Changing this would require making changes in various places: the C code
(obviously), the shell script (not only the cmd_set_branch() function
but the part for accepting user input as well) and the Documentation (I
might have maybe missed a couple of other changes to list here too). Its
not that I don't want to do this, but it would add unnecessary changes
don't you think? I would love it if others could weigh in their opinions
too about this.

We want to do this because $branch is an argument right?
