A potential answer here is to say that if you're dealing with a pathname
which looks like path@rev, or a variant pathname which could be
anything, stick "@HEAD" (or maybe just "@") at the end, and it's
guaranteed to work.

It's not the world's most satisfying answer, because it's extra gunk you
have to put in commands or URLs just to avoid a potential corner case.
But it's an option.
