Do you manually delete your > branches or do you have some clever script to share? As soon as my patches are picked up, I rename my internal branch to be the same as its remote counter part. Usually I rebase my local branches on these remote branches, such that directly after queuing they are identical. Usually I delete (local) branches as soon as I am either confident they go in as is or they are not very interesting to me. (e.g. a one off typo fix is developed on detached HEAD, sent out and I forget about it. In case a discussion ensues, I have to either take my patch or redo it. There is no local reminder of these things in the form of a branch) Stefan > Thanks, > Lars
