It would be perverted to try to keep the branch mapping in the file, but
petsc-branch:moab.py could name a commit on a MOAB branch, possibly
updated on merge.

This means that MOAB merging an API change would break PETSc 'master',
unless it was synchronized with PETSc merging a matching branch.  I
think this is undesirable.
