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 ?
Yep that was Brion's idea. I've already done it for all the 1.20wmfNN and 1.21wmfNN releases.
