Subject: Cache the HEAD value
X-Git-Tag: v0.14.3~642
X-Git-Url: https://git.distorted.org.uk/~mdw/stgit/commitdiff_plain/aa01a285716ffb29a62cd7d2ef5663fa2b73f568?hp=3097799dcde97cc3e1e3d6c87138f300df0ec2b6

Cache the HEAD value

There are many calls to git.get_head(). This value should be cached to
speed things up.
