You could also use `next` instead of `master`, which would make intuitive sense because the commits that make it into that branch are slated to be part of the next major Git version. And a relatively obvious name for the current `next` might be `cooking`. I refrained from proposing this earlier, thinking that this would be too disruptive, but since `pu` was renamed to `seen`... :-) Ciao, Dscho
