Add HEAD item in `Locations` side bar

[nikitabobko]

Here in Locations side bar I'd like to see HEAD along with BRANCHES, REMOTES, ...: which represents current branch.

How it should work:

• Click should jump to head of current branch
• Pressing eye icon should acts like eye icon was pressed on current branch
• As now double click is checkout in Sublime merge then double click on HEAD means nothing

But HEAD isn't a branch.. maybe it could go above the BRANCHES section & be a location without any children.

@srbs thank you! Your suggestion is even better than my own. For many people I know them use "HEAD branch" very often in other git GUIs and placing it on top level along with BRANCHES is good idea.

@nikitabobko, feel free to modify your title & description if you think my suggested is the route to go. 😃

I think it would be very convenient to have HEAD in Locations! I wonder why it's not there from the very beginning... This feature is the first in my wait-list.

I usually "ride" with locations hidden.

Some mocked Parent: sha-of-HEAD attribute could be added, above the commit message prompt (like this prompt above "commited" commits)

It's because it's designed really badly. See: #479

Well, not sure that it's good design solution. For me it'd look strange

I don't think it would look as bad as you may imagine. If I pretend to be a mock designer:

That doesn't look half bad to me, it is UI-consistent, and gets the job done

Forget what I said. It looks ok. It would be nice to have both:

1. Item in Locations side bar
2. Your suggested UI
