show-branch: --current includes the current branch.

With this, the command includes the current branch to the list
of revs to be shown when it is not given on the command line.
This is handy to use in the configuration file like this:

	[showbranch]
	default = --current
	default = heads/*	; primary branches, not topics under
				; subdirectories
