I'm curious what you want to do with this, but a patch as simple as this
should do it:

=== modified file 'bzrlib/msgeditor.py'
- --- bzrlib/msgeditor.py 2006-11-11 19:25:25 +0000
+++ bzrlib/msgeditor.py 2007-02-01 16:57:57 +0000
@@ -163,6 +163,7 @@
     from StringIO import StringIO       # must be unicode-safe
     from bzrlib.status import show_tree_status
     status_tmp = StringIO()
+    status_tmp.write('branch: %s\n' % (working_tree.branch.nick,))
     show_tree_status(working_tree, specific_files=specific_files,
                      to_file=status_tmp)
     return status_tmp.getvalue()

(naturally, we would want to add test cases, etc, but this should do the
basic work)
