Allow to include the same project more than once with different branches #141

We have a case where it would be useful to be able to include the same project 
more than once, but with different branches and placed in different paths in 
the workspace.

This change has been merged. Unfortunately it breaks the <remove-project> 
functionality: see https://code.google.com/p/git-repo/issues/detail?id=159

Hi David,

Does the "multiple branches for same project" feature have any adverse effect 
on the "repo download" functionality?

Now it seems, for a project mapped to multiple branches and paths, if a patch 
commit is made to any one of the branches and then trying to use the "repo 
download" from gerrit to apply the patch, produces random results. This might 
be because the repo has no idea which path the patch should be downloaded to.

Please refer to Issue 173: 
https://code.google.com/p/git-repo/issues/detail?id=173

Regards, Sushan.
