 change anything for each release. +1

 We still have to update the list of branches in git-list-tor-branches.sh

 But that's much better than changing different branch references in every
 script.

 I also had some more ideas for testing:

 We can test the pre-commit and parts of the pre-push script by making a
 scripted commit in the test repository, then pushing it to the repository
 that Travis automatically checks out. (Using a file path, so we know it
 will stay local.)

 We can't test the upstream pre-push or the post-merge script, but that's
 ok.
