This is certainly a possibility, there isn't really any issue with this, however, it will checkout using a detached head which can be a bit of an annoyance if you do a subsequent create-layers-setup as all the branches will have changed to 'HEAD' instead of their previous <branch> value. One could argue that the branch field could be dropped as well, it isn't really used currently, nor would it be used if we decide to use remote/branch. Sincerely, Jermain Horsman
