There's an update to my .trunk patch that includes
support for "branchtag.origin" as a pseudotag to calculate
the origin of a branch tag.   I've put a lot of sanity.sh
test cases in there, but, I feel like I still have more
to test... But, it does seem to have reached the point of
being useful, so here it is:

http://www.geocities.com/dotslashstar/branch_patch.html

One bug I know of, I think "-r .origin" will cause mischief.

That is, using ".origin" by itself without a tag preceding it.

".trunk.origin" should work right too, even if you used "commit -r"
to update revision numbers.  (If you used commit -r to update revision
numbers on a branch, well, you probably already broke the branch, so
you're out of luck there.)

If you try it, let me know if you find anything 
that doesn't work like you'd expect.

Of course these patches are all GPL'ed since it's useless 
without CVS.
