this looks good to me.

I'd add though that we should also make binding better,
otherwise you can still get into the same mess as "commit --local"
with unbind && commit && bind.
I think bind should refuse to work if the branches are out of sync.
Maybe it can do a push/pull for you as a convenience when the branches
did not diverge,
and otherwise advise the user to merge && commit and try again.
(this is obviously not critical for v2)
