same here. I also prefer lower case. (package names and dist tags are
lower-case too).

I would avoid the magic with HEAD, it might be to confusing.

"master" might also be confusing, but I can't think of anything better
at the moment. "f13/update" or "f13/release" came to mind, but they
are not very good either.
