Using branch.$name.description as the configuration key, give users a place to write about what the purpose of the branch is and things like that, so that various subsystems, e.g. "push -s", "request-pull", and "format-patch --cover-letter", can later be taught to use this information. The "-m" option similar to "commit/tag" is deliberately omitted, as the whole point of branch description is about giving descriptive information (the name of the branch itself is a better place for information that fits on a single-line).
