I can see why people would copy the branch URL if they wanted to use
that in the recipe but I was under the impression the main use case here
was just to show stuff that the user might like to know rather than to
aid them in crafting the recipe. That was my understanding after
reading https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/670452/comments/2 but
maybe I misunderstood or the main use case is to aid people writing
recipes?
