that makes me wonder whether adding support for `--symbolic-ref HEAD`
here would not be the cleaner solution? and why stop there, and not add
a few more ps1 would need, like --upstream and --sequencer-state?
(though arguably, this overloading of `rev-parse` should be deprecated
in favor of a new generalized `query` command, maybe even unified with
`var`.)
