What's actually the problem with expanding branches?
To me at least, it makes it harder to see what's actually deployed at a given time. Try `git branch -r` on core. We're at 86 branches now...that's 172 if you've got two remotes. It's only going to get worse and it'll be progressively harder to spot what's important.
We could simply delete the old branches after a few deployment cycles. If we want to keep the reference for history purposes, would tagging the tip of it be enough ?
If you find yourself struggling to find out the last 2 wmf branches, you can write a tiny script to sort and filter the branches, keeping only the last two.
