Dear diary, on Sun, Sep 24, 2006 at 11:57:34PM CEST, I got a letter
where Santi <sbejar@gmail.com> said that...

I don't know yet. Cogito will certainly *recognize* them for *long* time
ahead (many months to be sure), no matter what will we decide to do with
them. Of course Cogito would start being growingly critical about them.

But the best technical solution is probably to stop using remote
branches in the heads namespace in new repositories altogether and
strictly create a new [remote] per each repository you fetch from (no
matter if it's a single branch or all of them or just a set), and there
will be cg-remote-add and perhaps cg-remote-chg to help you maintain
that easily.
