--branch, stage 1
Added --branch option to copy, drop, fsck, get, metadata, mirror, move, and whereis commands. This option makes git-annex operate on files that are included in a specified branch (or other treeish). The names of the files from the branch that are being operated on are not displayed yet; only the keys. Displaying the filenames will need changes to every affected command. Also, note that --branch can be specified repeatedly. This is not really documented, but seemed worth supporting, especially since we may later want the ability to operate on all branches matching a refspec. However, when operating on two branches that contain the same key, that key will be operated on twice.
