+Specifies that when a split view quilt mode is in operation,
+and dgit calculates
+(or looks up in its cache)
+a dgit view corresponding to your HEAD,
+the dgit view will be left in
+.IR ref .
+The specified ref is unconditionally overwritten,
+so don't specify a branch you want to keep.
+
+This option is effective only with the following operations:
+quilt-fixup; push; all builds.
+And it is only effective with
+--[quilt=]gbp,
+--[quilt=]dpm,
+--quilt=unpatched.

+If ref does not start with refs/
