What makes you think it will "be blown away"?  Or alternatively, what do
you mean saying that?  I often use the same approach and I never had the
feeling anything is blown away.  If upstream uses your t/something patch
it just merges into t/something making it empty without changing the
corresponding tree (assuming master contains no other changes).  Then
when t/something is merged into t/all nothing happens, because
t/something's tree didn't change.

So the only thing is that t/all depends on an empty tg-branch.

Best regards
Uwe
