I actually am in favor of removing special casing of a single branch done by fmt-merge-msg and fast-export --anonymize, so this may not matter. We still need a mechanism to allow users specify the default name to be given to the first branch "git init" creates and used by "git clone" as a fallback name when it cannot infer what the other side uses, though.
