#
# This script allows you to easilly create and destroy local and remote 
# branches at the same time.
#
# git-remote-branch create: creates a remote branch from the current branch, 
#      creates a local tracking branch with the same name and switch to it 
#      (ie: checkout).
#
# git-remote-branch delete: deletes the remote branch then deletes the local
#      tracking branch.  It won't force a delete if there's pending changes
#      in your local branch.
#
