interpret repo#name url syntax as branch instead of revision
Previously, the name part of an repo#name url was interpreted as a
revision, similar to using the --rev option. Now it is instead looked
up as a branch first, and if that succeeds all the heads of the branch
will be processed instead of just its tip-most head. If the branch
lookup fails, it will be assumed to be an revision as before (e.g. for
tags).
