Not a good one, but I thought it fit better w/how an octopus branch listing was displayed.

The git:// protocol does not currently have a way to determine what a remote sym ref is pointed to, so it guesses by matching SHA1s. In theory this list is unbounded, in practice I don't think it is likely to be large.
I like the suggestion above about how to display the octopus merge tho, so I will put this back how it was.
