    Current branch without bloat is to cat .git/HEAD, and if that didn't exist, run git symbolic-ref HEAD. The first is faster and works in the common case where you're in the top of a…

    Steve Langasek decided to work on this problem in the last few years of his life and was a significant driver of progress on it. He will be missed, and I'll always think of him whe…
