Wow, 'info' asks a lot

[Matthew D. Fuller]

I happened to be watching a web log while I did a checkup on a branch,
and zow.  Standalone branch, one commit.  `bzr info http://[...]`
leads to 14 HTTP requests for 7 files.  None of them are even ranged,
so we ask for e.g. branch.conf in its entirety 6 times.  That seems a
tad excessive...

-Dhttp yields (names changed to protect the guilty):

0.489  > GET /some/branch/.bzr/branch-format
0.519  > GET /some/branch/.bzr/checkout/format
0.522  > GET /some/branch/.bzr/branch/format
0.535  > GET /some/branch/.bzr/repository/format
0.618  > GET /some/branch/.bzr/repository/pack-names
