Behavior

check: Check for changes to the branch set.

The repository is cloned (or pulled if already present), all remote branches are enumerated, and compared to the existing set of branches.

If any branches are new or removed, a new version is emitted including the delta.

in: Produce the version's info as files.

Produces the following files based on the version being fetched:

• branches: A file containing the list of current branches, one per line.
• added: A file containing the newly cretated branches, one per line.
• removed: A file containing the branches that have been removed, one per line.

out: No-op.

Not implemented.
