Public bug reported:

git-ubuntu is storing pristine tar information in its branches.
The branch name is not 'pristine-tar' (and may not be local).

It seems useful to allow the caller of pristine-tar to supply the
reference branch.


Ie,
  pristine-tar --branch=my-pristine-tar list
  pristine-tar --branch=my-pristine-tar checkout <TARBALL>
