It really is.

Think like a user. If I pull from "origin", then the name of that thing is 
"origin", not "origin/master" or "o/master". A user doesn't care what the 
remote branch name is - the whole _point_ of the .git/remotes/xyzzy file 
is to give a short description that includes the names of the branches you 
pull from.

The good news is that "get_sha1()" shouldn't be that hard to extend on. 
Just add a case at the end that says "do we have a .git/remotes/%s file, 
and if so, parse it".
