Feature request: make "-U" flag accept the branch to update from (useful for testing non-master branches)

[DBa20-24]

Currently, installing non-master branches is a highly manual process - it would be great if the "-U" flag accepted some parameters, ideally also allowing forks, so that a non-master version can be easily deployed for testing.

If you have raspiBackup installed then you can use this helper script to download raspiBackup from any branch. Then either move raspiBackup.sh into /usr/local/bin to replace current release or invoke just downloaded raspiBackup.sh with sudo ~/raspiBackup.sh <options>.

You can also pass a git commit sha instead of a branch name to download any commited code.
