Just conversations on IRC where stuff had to be explained. People not
understanding that they'd actually cloned _multiple_ branches and they
needed to select the one they wanted, making the same kind of stupid
mistakes I did with committing to the wrong place, etc. Nothing specific
stands out as being fixable, certainly.

Branches have their place, and some people seem very happy with them as
part of their local workflow. I just wonder if we have to have them on
the servers too; that's all.
