Quote:
+(defvar emacs-repository-branch nil
+  "String giving the repository branch from which this Emacs was built.
+Value is nil if Emacs was not built from a repository checkout,
+or if we could not determine the branch.")

So he's clearly asking for the branch name that this Emacs was built
from, which (again) would always be a local branch (even if it had no
changes at all) if I had built that Emacs.  It's an ill-posed question
that doesn't have an answer or at least not one that has the usefulness
that Michael wants.


Regards,
Achim.
