am: Fix broken guessbranch handling
b4's usage of git-log '--branches' option is broken. The option takes a glob pattern *only* and must have an '=', but b4 ends up passing '--branches <guessbranch>' to git-log. This will kind of work, but is not checking only 'guessbranch'. For example, these 3 commands all do something different: git log -1 --branches=master git log -1 --branches master git log -1 --branches=*aster A maintainer wanting to apply a patch or series likely has a small set of known branches they apply patches to. Using a glob pattern is not a good fit for that. Instead, allow --guess-branch to be repeated and to take fixed refs.
