[PATCH guilt] Handles slashes in branch names

From
ELEric Lesh <eclesh@ucla.edu>
Date

Message-ID
<87y7hctf6o.fsf@hubert.paunchy.net>

When a branch name has a slash and autotagging is enabled, guilt barfs when updating the stack tags. Escape the branch name in the tags to allow this to work.

Also allow guilt to create the patches directory for these branches.
