Build Identifier: M20100909-0800

When using External Tools for build scripts it should be nice to expose the active branch name from the project (mentioned between the square brackets after the project name in PHP Explorer). Using this variable inside External Tools we can automatically build environments into different target directories depending on the branch we are working on.

Reproducible: Always
