Uh, this is in response to TopGit, which addresses precisely this
problem: keeping track of the branches and automating their use.
It won't solve the problem about committing to the wrong branch,
which can only be solved by you. Hint: show the current branch in
your shell prompt.

TopGit maintaines a complete graph, not just a stack.
