As we are already using the API to retrieve the pull request title, also retrieve the base branch. This makes sure that pull requests for 0.12 automatically end up in 0.12, and pull requests for master automatically end up in master, and so on. It is still possible to override the branch from the command line or using the `githubmerge.branch` git option.
