[Monotone-devel] Issue 85 - automate tags outputs empty "branches" stanza (monotone)

[code]

Hello,

A new issue has been created and assigned
to you:

85 - automate tags outputs empty "branches" stanza
Project: monotone
Status: New
Reported by: Thomas Keller
Labels:
 Type:Defect
 Component:Automation Interface
 Priority:Medium

Description:

For some tags the "branches" stanza of automate tags keeps empty, for example 
when the branch certificates for the specific revisions are not pulled (and 
maybe also when the branches in question are suspended, but I haven't tested 
this).

The issue is here if this is valid basic_io syntax at all or if we shouldn't 
simply skip the "branches" stanza altogether when we have no branches to 
output...? The docs already note that the list is "possibly empty", but it 
still looks a bit fugly.
