I believe that we can get the branch remote via struct branch. Instead
of reading the config, we could do something along the lines of:
int *explicit;
struct branch *branch = branch_get();
char *remote = remote_for_branch(branch, explicit);
/* Optionally check explicit if we don't want to fall back to
* "origin" */
I'm not sure which is the idiomatic way to get the branch remote, feel
free to correct me.
