git_branch_upstream_nameandgit_branch_upstream_remotewhich retrieve the configured upstream remote and branch, but do not attempt to resolve them, so unlikeBranch::upstreamthese functions don't fail if the branch has a configured upstream which doesn't exist. This way we can detect "gone" branches, i.e. branches whose upstream got deleted on the remote and was subsequently pruned bygit fetch.I don't know whether I put the functions in the correct place, and I'm not sure how to test these; I'm happy to amend this pull request if you would review it and give me directions.
