While I was skimming the messages without reading the Subject line (hence without realizing that this is about improving the existing documentation and not adding new features), I thought that these two are about moving branch to a remote repository that is named with <destination>. My advice would be to stick to <old> vs <new> that contrasts well. Thanks.
