[PATCH 1/4] get_remote_group(): handle remotes with single-character names

In-Reply-To
<cover.1438117334.git.mhagger@alum.mit.edu>

The code for splitting a whitespace-separated list of values in "remotes.<name>" had an off-by-one error that caused it to skip over remotes whose names consist of a single character.

Also remove unnecessary braces.
