branch command with options "edit-description", "set-upstream-to" and
"unset-upstream" expects a branch name. Since ae5a6c3684 (checkout:
implement "@{-N}" shortcut name for N-th last branch, 2009-01-17) a
branch can be specified using shortcuts like @{-1}. Those shortcuts
need to be resolved when considering the arguments.
We can modify the description of the previously checked out branch with:
$ git branch --edit--description @{-1}
We can modify the upstream of the previously checked out branch with:
$ git branch --set-upstream-to upstream @{-1}
$ git branch --unset-upstream @{-1}

To simplify the patch and make it easier to review, I removed all
refactoring related to return codes and errors. Leaving that and
everything else discussed in the thread, to next series.
This patch now only has one commit with the missing @{-N} handling
completed and the tests for it. Some refactoring has been done in
the test as well.
Un saludo.
