Using GitPython module to get remote HEAD branch

I'm trying to use GitPython to write some Python scripts which I can use it to simplify my daily tasks as I manage many branches.

I'm also quite new for Python when it comes to writing complicated scripts.

This is the API I used: GitPython API doc

I want to write it in GitPython that simply does the following and parse out the part which shows me the HEAD remote branch is pointing. In another word, I want to basically get the remotes/origin/HEAD

$ git branch -a  master* branch_to_remove  remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master  remotes/origin/master  remotes/origin/testing

I browse the API doc many times, at first I'm having trouble to understand the Python format of these API docs, and I couldn't find anything useful to use to do for this other than remote_head in class git.refs.reference.Reference(repo, path, check_path=True)

But I don't even know how to call/initialize it.

Here is what I had so far, and you can tell what I'm trying to do, to simply reset to 'no branch' state and remove the current branch I'm on:

import gitfrom git import *repo = git.Repo("/some/path/testing")repo.git.branch()[some code to get the remotes/origin/HEAD, set it to remoteHeadBranch ]repo.git.checkout(remoteHeadBranch)  # this should reset the Git back to 'no branch' staterepo.git.checkout(D="branch_to_remove")

Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks.
