The documentation for 'create_branch()' was incomplete as it didn't say
what certain parameters were used for. Further a parameter name wasn't
very communicative.
So, add missing documentation for the sake of completeness and easy
reference. Also, rename the concerned parameter to make its name more
communicative.
