 * Contrary to all of the above, when attr_only is 1, the caller is

 * branch to point at a potentially different commit. It is merely
 * asking if it is OK to change some attribute for the named branch
 * (e.g. tracking upstream).

 * NEEDSWORK: This needs to be split into two separate functions in the
 * longer run for sanity.
