git branch descriptions

First, let me extend my thanks for a great version control tool. Git has enhanced my productivity tremendously - I appreciate the Git team's focus on performance, usability, and correctness. Awesome work.

I've used git in several jobs now and keep coming back to _really_ wishing I could attach a description to some of my branches. Working on a wide range of topics/branches from week to week and project to project, it's sometimes difficult to quickly remember what each branch is about, without doing a git diff master <branch>.  I like to keep branch names short so they're easy to switch to and from, but being able to attach a description that would display when doing a "git branch" would be a huge help.

My only intention with this email is to say "thanks" and put in a vote for git branch descriptions.
