What should I add to the requirements file for pip to select the correct git branch?

Question

I saw the -e option that I can use to ask pip to download specific packages from github. However, the master branch seems to be loading. Is there any way to pick another branch?

You can find the requirements file documentation here: http://www.pip-installer.org/en/latest/logic.html#git

-e git://git.myproject.org/ MyProject.git@master #egg=MyProject
