That's interesting !

The command just runs "stg branch", in my StGit setup this returns an error (some stuff written to stderr) if the directory where it is run is not a StGit stack.

run() just detects the error and returns false.
Could you try to run it from a console and see if you have stuff on stderr ?

Thanks Marco
