Config options added to truncate git branch names #482

Two config.json options added that help truncate git branch names. The first shortens "master" to "M". The second truncates the branch name to a given length. For example, with these config settings:
```
"git": {
"master_is_M": true,
"branch_max_length": 5
}
```
We would see "M" in lieu of "master" and "whate…" in lieu of "whatever".
Forgot to check if a branch existed! Fixed that. Now the script works in both .git repos and other directories.

This is related to #438 . I added two options to truncate git branch names to use with
config.json.The first abbreviates master to M. The second sets a maximum number of characters to display for the branch name. Names past that length are truncated and appended with the unicode ellipsis.
I didn't look at bzr or other vc systems, so I kept this git specific.
