Sure there are. Just watching my submissions on the mailing list, you
can see ones mentioned such as "misc-2.6", "libata-dev", "netdev-2.6", etc.:
[jgarzik@pretzel repo]$ ls -FC
config-2.4 ethtool/ libata-dev/ netdev-2.6/ sparse/
config-2.6 git/ linux-2.6/ old-SCM/
config-2.6-uml git-tools/ misc-2.6/ scsi-misc-2.6/
And I always keep an unmodified 'vanilla' tree from which everything is
sourced (and hardlinked to).
It's a categorization system, a namespace. Top-level repositories are
broad categories, and branches sub-divide those categories.
Jeff
